Arsenal’s Aaron Ramsdale Sports Hagrid Costume at Championship Play-Off Final

Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale surprised fans at the Championship play-off final by attending in disguise. Sporting a hilarious Hagrid costume, Ramsdale was nearly unrecognizable at Wembley Stadium.

The 26-year-old, a supporter of West Bromwich Albion, blended in with Southampton fans as they secured a 1-0 victory over Leeds United, earning promotion back to the Premier League.

Wearing a black wig and beard, Ramsdale’s comical attempt to mimic Hagrid from the movies added a touch of humor to the intense matchday atmosphere. Boxpark Wembley was his initial stop before settling into the Saints’ supporters section.

Former Bournemouth player David Brooks, a close friend of Ramsdale, featured in the game but was forced off early due to an injury. Fans and social media users were quick to spot the disguised goalkeeper, appreciating his effort to enjoy the game incognito.

Following Southampton’s win, they confirmed their place in the next Premier League season, alongside Leicester City and Ipswich Town also securing promotion from the Championship. Ramsdale, eager to make Gareth Southgate‘s Euro squad, has his sights set on international success before addressing his Arsenal future.

Currently playing second fiddle to David Raya at Arsenal, Ramsdale’s future with the club is uncertain. With only 11 appearances this season, speculations suggest a potential move to clubs like Newcastle or Wolves. The goalkeeper’s playful engagement with fans and passion for the sport continue to shine, as seen in his recent escapade at Wembley.
