Unai Emery 'wants Joan Jordan as Aaron Ramsey replacement'

Emery 'wants La Liga midfielder as Ramsey replacement'

Arsenal are reportedly considering a swoop for Eibar midfielder Joan Jordan as the Gunners look for a replacement for Juventus-bound Aaron Ramsey.

Unai Emery's side are expected to be active in this summer's transfer window, and one of the club's priorities will be to sign a midfielder as Ramsey prepares to leave for Turin.

According to Marca, Jordan's performances for Eibar this season have captured the attention of the Gunners, with Emery believed to be a firm admirer of the 24-year-old's talents.

The two-time Catalonia international, who joined Eibar from Espanyol in 2017, has scored three times and contributed four assists in 27 La Liga appearances during the 2018-19 campaign.

Jordan's current deal with Azulgranas will expire in the summer of 2020, while it is understood that his contract includes a release clause of just £12.9m.
