Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey could be allowed to leave the club on a free transfer next summer following a breakdown in contract talks.
The Gunners and Welshman Ramsey have been unable to reach a middle ground on negotiations, with Ramsey rumoured to want a salary that puts him on par with the club’s top earner Mesut Ozil. The situation will bring back bad memories for Arsenal faithful after the club allowed the contracts of Alexis Sanchez & Robin van Persie to run to their final year, forcing the club to sell their star assets for a fraction of their real values.
27-year-old Ramsey has been at the club for over ten years and battled through a string of injury issues to become a key player at The Emirates, notching up over 300 appearances. How will this situation pan out? Will Arsenal sell in January or keep the Welshman at the club until his deal runs out?
Arsenal’s next opponents in the Premier League are Watford, who they play on Saturday 29th. Ramsey came off the bench last night in Arsenal’s 3-1 EFL Cup success against Brentford.
