Everton are understood to be keen on Arsenal’s Premier League star Ramsey, but so are Serie A duo Juventus and AC Milan.
Everton are going all out to bring Aaron Ramsey to Goodison Park.
According to The Mirror (17 October, page 51), director of football Marcel Brands is putting together a lucrative package to lure Ramsey when his contract at Arsenal expires at the end of the season. It is reported that he will be offered £150,000-a-week, plus a hefty £15 million signing on fee.
Everton are far from the only team who have been linked with the Wales international. But reports from Italy on Friday appear to have boosted Marco Silva’s hopes of being able to call on Ramsey next season.
Tuttomercatoweb report that Juventus and AC Milan are indeed keen on Ramsey. But Juve have made another out-of-contract midfielder, the PSG star Adrien Rabiot, their top priority in 2019.
Milan, meanwhile, are hoping to sign the 21-year-old Brazilian Lucas Paquetta from Flamengo, which would not leave much room for Ramsey’s arrival at the San Siro.
Ramsey was reportedly open to continuing his career outside of the Premier League but suggestions that the Serie A giants are looking at other options should push Everton further up the queue.
