Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey 'to sign Juventus deal on Friday'

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey will reportedly sign a four-year contract with Juventus on Friday.

Ramsey is understood to have agreed terms with the Italian giants for a free transfer at the end of the season after talks over an extension to his expiring Arsenal contract fell through.

Tuttosport reports that Juventus have offered the Wales international around £4m per year in a deal which will keep him at the club until 2023.

However, the Bianconeri are still eager to push through a transfer this month rather than waiting until the summer, while Arsenal want to keep hold of him until the end of his current contract.

The Gunners are demanding a fee of £20m to let the 28-year-old leave during the ongoing transfer window, but Juventus are hopeful of negotiating that price down.

Ramsey is understood to have undergone a secret medical with Juventus on Sunday before agreeing personal terms.
