Talks begin, As Juventus are in a pole position to sign The Gunners star.
Juventus jumps to the front of the queue for Arsenal star Aaron Ramsey as a free agent next summer, according to the reports.
Ramsey is not on good terms with Arsenal and is not likely to sign a new contract with the Gunners. He has scored only twice in 21 appearances for his club this season.
Transfer Pundit Fabrizio Romano can confirm Juventus’ DS Fabio Paratici has personally begun talks with the player’s entourage.
Inter and AC Milan had also been linked with the Welshman but his agent’s requests are too high for both teams.
Giuseppe Marotta, in particular, had been in talks with the player’s representative who demands a salary higher than Mauro Icardi’s. A request that Inter can’t match.
Ramsey has admirers in Premier League and PSG are also monitoring his situation. The player’s salary request is in the region of €10 million. Talks between the two parties have begun, Juventus will decide in the coming weeks. Meantime, the Old Lady of Italian football is in pole position for Ramsey.
Author’s take:
As per the reports, Juventus are in a front of the queue to sign 27-year old Arsenal midfielder whose contract will expire with Arsenal at the end of the season and is not willing to sign a fresh deal with the club due to unhealthy terms.
Ramsey’s demand are already too high for Inter to fulfill. This gives the encouragement to Italians in the pursuit of a Welshman.
