Juventus are working on a deal to sign Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey on a free transfer next summer, according to Sky in Italy.


The Bianconeri are ahead of competition for the 27-year-old, including from Serie A rivals Inter Milan, Sky in Italy are reporting.

Sky Sports News exclusively revealed in October that Ramsey would be leaving the Emirates next summer, after he was told in person why he would not be offered a new deal.

With his current contract expiring in June 2019, the Wales international is free to negotiate with foreign clubs from January 1.

Ramsey was unhappy earlier this season that nobody from Arsenal had initially explained the reasons for withdrawing the offer of a new long-term deal, following months of talks.

He had found out via his agent before speaking out publicly on the issue last week, telling a newspaper that he was hoping "somebody will come up and tell me why" the option to stay was taken off the table.

Those discussions finally took place on the weekend the Gunners drew 2-2 at Crystal Palace, and the player subsequently accepted that this will be his last season in north London following a decade of service.

Ramsey has made 350 appearances and scored 59 goals since joining from Cardiff City for just under £5m in 2008.

He was an instrumental part of Arsene Wenger's team, winning three FA Cups in 2014, 2015 and 2017 and scoring the winner in two of those finals, and he has made 21 appearances - including seven Premier League starts - under new head coach Unai Emery so far this season.

It appears that 'Rambo' will be leaving the Arsenal after his wage demands were declined by the Board. No figure has been mentioned from that source but it is widely reported that other clubs in Europe have baulked at figures c.£9m per season (or £175 per week)

Is he worth it?

Seemingly not to the Arsenal but certainly to the club who end up signing him!

What are equally intriguing are the persisting rumours that he "wants to be with his wife and family" and that would be in the Cardiff area

Is a 'loan' move possible or plausible?

You wouldn't think so on the surface of it; but stranger things have happened in football...

He’s been playing why would they loan him out?

Firstly, I did ask if it was plausible and also stated (quote) "You wouldn't think so on the surface of it"

Personally, I think it highly unlikely; but I've heard this from a couple of previously trustworthy people away from this Forum who have been correct on such things before, so thought I'd ask the question

Can you imagine if...

Why don’t we do a year’s deal for 9m wages in Summer sign him on a two year contract then sell him for 50 m going 50 :50 with him on transfer fee. He can then be with his twins in Cardiff for their first year!
