Arsenal have been criticized in the media for letting their stars leave for next to nothing in the past few transfer windows. Aaron Ramsey is set to follow this trend as the Wales international is close to signing a four-year contract with Italian giants Juventus.
Italian tabloid Tuttosport reports that Juventus have offered the 28-year-old a contract worth £4 million yearly until 2023. Juventus are also keen to bring the transfer forward in January rather than waiting until the summer. However, Arsenal are reluctant to lose the player this month and want to keep him until the summer.
The Gunners are open to a January exit as long as Juventus meet their asking price of £20 million for the player. Juventus are renegotiating and are hopeful of bargaining a lower price for the dynamic midfielder. Ramsey is believed to have undergone a secret medical with Juventus prior to agreeing on personal terms with the Italian club.
Arsenal have been scouting for replacements for the former Cardiff midfielder, and Barcelona ace Denis Suarez is expected to move to the Emirates in the coming days. A loan deal has been agreed with Barcelona for the 24-year-old with an option to make permanent in the summer.
