Aaron Ramsdale "is too good to be a number two" for Arsenal, says former Gunners goalkeeper David Seaman.
Ramsdale has been competing with David Raya since the Brentford keeper's loan move to north London in the summer.
Spain's Raya has been favoured in the Premier League by Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, making eight appearances to Ramsdale's four.
Ramsdale, 25, was an unused substitute in England's final Euro 2024 qualifier in North Macedonia on Monday.
"If he's not playing [for Arsenal], it's going to affect his [England] chances," Seaman, who has an informal coaching role at the Gunners, told BBC Radio 5 Live.
"Going into next summer, where Aaron is really pushing to become England goalkeeper - he needs to be playing."
England manager Gareth Southgate has said he could not "promise" him a place in the Euro 2024 finals squad if he remained on the bench.
Ramsdale is likely to start against Brentford on Saturday with Premier League rules preventing Raya from playing against his parent club.
"If Aaron goes in at the weekend, then he's left out for the next game, then we know who Mikel's number one is," added Seaman, who won three league titles in 13 years at the Gunners.
