Ramsey completes Arsenal move
Cardiff City have sold Aaron Ramsey to Arsenal. The talented Welsh international had been the subject of a bidding war between Man Utd and the Gunners, but Arsene Wenger managed to persuade the midfielder to join Arsenal in a deal estimated to be worth about £5 million.
Manager Arsène Wenger said: âWeâre delighted to have signed Aaron Ramsey. He is a young player who has shown huge potential with his performances for both Cardiff City and Wales at under-17 and Under-21 levels. He is still only 17, but has already shown that he is a very intelligent and mature player with great quality. Although he mainly plays in midfield, Aaron is a versatile player and can also play across the defence. We are all looking forward to welcoming Aaron to the Club for our pre-season preparations.â
Ramsey said: âIâm so happy to have signed for Arsenal. I am joining one of the biggest clubs in the world and canât wait to meet my new team mates. I recently met with Arsène Wenger and he was a big factor in my decision to join Arsenal. He talked to me for a long time about the Club and the plans for the future, which really excites me. Arsenal is a Club which always gives young players an opportunity at the highest level of the game and I am going to work my hardest to be part of future successes here."
