Arsenal boss drops update on Aaron Ramsey’s contract decision

Unai Emery

Arsenal boss Unai Emery has acknowledged that midfielder Aaron Ramsey has already made the decision to move on from the Gunners when the season comes to a close.

The Welshman has less than six months remaining on his existing deal with the north London club and he has already held an initial medical with Juventus ahead of the Bosman move in the summer.

Speaking in a press conference, covered by The Mirror, Emery admitted that the decision to not offer a contract to the Welshman was made more than three months ago.

He added that both the club and the player are satisfied with the final outcome and he is pleased that the midfielder is giving his best during the final few months of his Gunners deal.

“We spoke about the circumstance with Ramsey three months ago and now the decision is finished for him and for the club. I am very happy with him because in the last month his focus has been very clear,” he said.

Ramsey has been regularly used from the bench for the Premier League duties this term but Emery has shown the confidence of entrusting the midfielder with a starting role in the matches against the elite.

Most recently, the Welshman was entrusted with the role of man-marking Jorginho during the 2-0 derby triumph and he managed to do the job with good effect while restricting the passing range of the Italy international.

Arsenal switch their focus to FA Cup action on Friday night where they are scheduled to host Manchester United at the Emirates. Ramsey is among those likely to feature from the off after a solid display against Maurizio Sarri’s side last weekend.
