Former Premier League goalkeeper Brad Friedel believes that Arsenal shot stopper Matt Turner must reconsider his future.
The American is second choice behind Aaron Ramsdale this season, which means he has played a bit part role.
While he recently gave an interview that he was happy at Arsenal, Friedel believes that he should show ambition and move on.
Speaking to sportingpost.com, the ex-Tottenham man said: "When I wasn't playing consistently when I was at Liverpool I had to get out. Even though I loved the club and it was the team I supported, I had to leave for my career. You have such a short career as a professional footballer and you need to play as many games as possible inside that time.
"Look at Matt's competition for the national team spot. He was the number one then and he's gone all this time without playing, but Zack Steffen, who wasn't getting a game at Manchester City, is now playing well for Middlesbrough. They are possible promotion candidates and all of a sudden with Zack playing at a high level in the Championship and potentially in the Premier League and he's playing every week whilst Matt is on the bench, then you're looking at another change in who is the number one keeper for the US national team.
"I think that Matt, no matter what, even though Arsenal are an incredible club, has to find consistent football somewhere. This season, fine, but if he's not going to be the number one he has got to go. The only issue is that he's on a long contract and if you're Arsenal, why would you let him go? You've got an incredible goalkeeper, an incredible guy, a great worker, you have one of the best number two's on the planet.
"I think it's a tough position. I'd like for the US side of things, for Zack Steffen to be playing, for Ethan Horvath to be playing (which he is) and for Matt Turner to be playing so there is great competition because that makes everyone better."
