Arsenal contract talks with Aaron Ramsey break down - reports

Published on: 27 September 2018

Arsenal's Unai Emery insists he was not happy with his side's lack of control in the first half of their win over Everton and that they need to defend better in the future. Craig Burley believes Unai Emery has done well implementing his style, but still has his reservations about Arsenal playing out from the back.

Contract negotiations between Arsenal and midfielder Aaron Ramsey have broken down, according to reports.

Wales international Ramsey, 27, is into the final year of his contract, which expires at the end of June, and would be able to leave the Emirates Stadium on a free transfer if no new deal is agreed.

The Mirror says Arsenal are understood to have turned down a £50 million bid for Ramsey in the summer, and he is now reported to be interesting Juventus and AC Milan.

According to the BBC, he will either be sold in the winter window or become a free agent at the end of the season "barring an unlikely resumption" of negotiations.

Ramsey, Arsenal's longest-serving player, signed for Arsenal from Cardiff in 2008 and scored winning goals for them in both the 2014 and 2017 FA Cup finals.

Last month, coach Unai Emery told Ramsey to forget about his contract situation and focus on his performances after he was dropped for the defeat at Chelsea.

He came on as a late substitute in Wednesday's Carabao Cup win over Championship side Brentford at the Emirates.
