Chelsea, Manchester United monitoring Arsenal midfielder

Premier League duo Chelsea and Manchester United are reportedly monitoring the position of Aaron Ramsey, who has yet to sign a new contract with Arsenal.

The Wales international has already entered the final year of his contract with the Gunners but talks are yet to progress beyond the initial stage to extend his stay.

As a result, there has been plenty of speculation surrounding his future and according to The Sun, both Chelsea and United are said to be keeping tabs on the midfielder's situation.

Both Chelsea and United managed to pursue a central midfielder during the recent transfer window but the clubs are nevertheless said to be tracking the Welshman, who could be available on a bargain in January.

Ramsey has previously indicated that he is unsure regarding the negotiations involving his agent but recent reports have suggested that he is eyeing a contract worth £250,000-a-week to commit his future to the Gunners.
