While the general consensus is that Aaron Ramsey will be a Juventus player next season, the manner of the transfer is still being worked on.
Much like the Emre Can saga, the Serie A champions are trying to complete the move early, but Arsenal’s demands are proving a bit too high.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport on Tuesday, Juventus ‘continue to work’ on getting the deal over the line this month, prepared to pay around €10m for the Welshman’s services.
Down Arsenal’s end, the Gunners will not accept anything below €20m for their midfielder, who remains a strong rotation option for Unai Emery at the Emirates.
Stalemate? Not quite.
The Italian newspaper explain that a lot depends on the fitness of Sami Khedira, who missed Monday’s game against Chievo due to a ‘blow to the leg’ .
Should he be set to miss an extended run of games, then Juventus’ hand could be forced when it comes to Ramsey and ‘do something immediately’.
One to keep an eye on.
