The future of Aaron Ramsey appears to have been finally decided with news that he is set to join Juventus in the summer, after agreeing a deal worth £36 million over a five year period with the Italian champions.
Out of contract with Arsenal in the summer after the London club withdrew the offer of a new deal for him, the Welshman has been linked with a series of high-profile European clubs over the past few months, with Bayern Munich, PSG, and both Milan clubs said to be interested in signing him.
However, Juventus have always been the favourite to land the 28-year old, and now that status seems to be confirmed with news of his agreement, according to The Guardian.
Ramsey will earn around £140,000 a week with the Turin side, which will make him the club’s second-highest earner behind Cristiano Ronaldo, but ahead of players like Paolo Dybala and Miralem Pjanic.
