As per the BBC journalist, the Welshman has signed a deal that would earn him a whopping £400k+ per week. The deal is a 4-year and he passed the 2-part medical in late January.

Ramsey moved from Cardiff City and joined Arsenal in 2008. He was in constant contract talks with the Gunners but the negotiations ended at the start of the season.

Reports suggest that Ramsey and his agent were pushing Arsenal to improve the deal at first and finally agreed on a contract in the summer of 2018. However, the Gunners pulled the plug on the deal at the final stage and informed him that he won’t be given the new contract.

Juventus are undoubtedly the kings of signing top players on a free transfer and Ramsey joins the illustrated list. Paul Pogba, Andrea Pirlo, Dani Alves, etc have all rejuvenated their careers at the Turin side and the Welshman will be looking to do the same.
