Aaron Ramsey to Juventus: The Italian giants are eyeing the out-going Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey for a move in January.
Arsenal is in red-hot form at the moment. The club is on a nine-match winning streak in all competitions, which include six Premier League matches. The Gunners are currently fourth in the Premier League, above their city rivals Tottenham, and only two points behind league leaders Manchester City.
In their last match of the league before the international break, Arsenal put five past Fulham at Craven Cottage, with two goals each from Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Aaron Ramsey scored the other goal, and while the Gunners celebrated one of the best goals in the season so far from the Welshman, his future prospects might not be as cheerful for the fans.
The talks for a new contract between Aaron Ramsey and Arsenal failed, according to reports from English media. As it stands, the Welsh midfielder will leave Arsenal next year on a free, as his contract expires in 2019.
Now, reports suggest that Juventus might be keen on signing the player in January.
Aaron Ramsey to Juventus:
Juventus are currently at the top of the Serie A, and did major business in the summer. The club signed Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid in a stunning 100 million euro transfer in July.
Now, Allegri is plotting a move for Arsenal’s Aaron Ramsey.
Hate on me all you want, but Aaron Ramsey is a world class footballer and one of the best in our squad, if not the best. Need him to stay, but if the club really don’t want to go through with it, then so be it. Going to cherish every moment left of his in an Arsenal shirt.

According to English media outlet Daily Mail, Allegri is a fan of the 27-year old midfielder and wants to wrap the deal for Ramsey in January.
Aaron Ramsey would be free to negotiate with other clubs from January 1. According to the report, fellow English rivals Liverpool and Chelsea are also keeping eye on the midfielder.

Aaron Ramsey is currently the club’s longest serving midfielder. He signed for Arsenal from Cardiff City in 2008.
The Welsh midfielder reportedly demanded higher wages, which the club is not willing to offer him.
What next?
Various reports from England suggest that Arsenal is in the market to replace Ramsey. Some reports claim that Arsenal has already agreed a deal with Miguel Almiron, the Paraguayan international who currently plays for Atlanta United in the MLS. Other reports suggest that the club is interested in Ever Banega.
Really interesting to hear Miguel Almirón is set to sign for @Arsenal in January for £11M. Seem to recall the club were linked with him even back when he was tearing it up for Lanús – thoroughly deserves his move to Europe pic.twitter.com/TdKlso6VBZ

The Argentine international has been linked with a move to Arsenal throughout the summer, but no substantial move was made by either side.
