Being linked with a move for the Uryaguan cannibal now.
Are the De Gea deadlock, Bale rumours not enough now?

The Phil Jones renewal has nearly broken me!

Enough already!

I think you need to stop reading the papers 😃

Please no. Just no.

Yeah, no one believes that.

I'm surprised someone managed to stop laughing long enough to type it out.

If Ramsey is on £400k a week, then Juve will soon have our Sanchez problem of other players wondering why they don't get similar or better wages. I'm not sure Ramsey even starts for them tbh; certainly not in his favoured CAM role.

Anyway, if Dybala rightly gets the hump, that could be an opportunity to go after him.

It’s 250 a week by all accounts.

Reading an article about Sancho. He has more assists per minute this season than any player in the major European leagues this season.

At 18 years of age.

We should think about scouting him.

At least 40 times.

Then prepare a bid.

Theres an added signing on fee that gets paid weekly instead of a lump sum. Similar to Sanchez for us. Rags love telling a different story

Then send a delegation,obviously headed up by Matt Judge to see if BVB would consider a low ball bid for the best prospect in Europe.

In fairness to Ed I think the scouting 50 times thing might have been more to do with Moyes and that Dutch loon. Ed strikes me as trigger happy if anything.

I hope so.

He is trigger happy, it's just that whilst everyone else is hunting the big game, he's stumbled into a taxidermists.

Ornstien was saying 400 yesterday, as were Sky.

Aaron Ramsey: Arsenal midfielder signs £400k-a-week deal to join Juventus

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has signed a pre-contract agreement to join Juventus in the summer in a deal that will earn him over £400,000 a week.

The 28-year-old has agreed a four-year contract that will see him join the Italian champions as a free agent, ending his 11-year spell with Arsenal.

Ramsey passed a two-part medical in January, having picked Juve following talks with a host of European clubs.

He will be the highest-earning British player ever based on basic salary.

The Wales international's Arsenal contract expires on 30 June and the Gunners will receive no fee when he leaves.

In confirming the deal, Juventus said the club would incur costs of 3.7m euros (£3.2m) but did not specify what the fee was for.

Arsenal said Ramsey had made a "fantastic contribution" during his time at the club and will "have a special place in the hearts and memories" of fans.

On his Instagram page, Ramsey thanked Arsenal's fans and said he will "continue to give the team 100%".

He wrote: "You welcomed me as a teenager and have been there through all the highs and lows I've encountered during my time at the club.

"It is with a heavy heart that I leave after 11 incredible years. Thank you."

He wasn't trigger happy over a CB last summer!

And Marcotti said they were incorrect:


BBC reporting that Aaron Ramsey will earn £400k/week basic salary at Juventus. Been told it's actually around €7.5m net which works out to £250k/week.
As ever, can only go with what I'm told, but £250k/week sounds a hell of a lot more plausible. (If still rather high...)

Supposedly BBC reported his pre-tax wage, which is 400.

Fair enough - but you said it was 250 'by all accounts', which I just showed it wasn't, as the BBC and Sky have both said otherwise.
