Gianluca Di Marzio has claimed that Everton target Aaron Ramsey won’t be leaving Juventus this summer on Sky Sports.

Ramsey was linked with Everton in 90 Minutes back in April, with Carlo Ancelotti looking for midfielders.

The Daily Mirror had then claimed last week that new Juventus boss Andrea Pirlo didn’t want Ramsey.

However, Di Marzio suggests that Juve actually don’t have any desire to sell Ramsey, and that the reported Everton target will be sticking around in Turin.

“I think Aaron Ramsey will stay,” Di Marzio said. “He is on a lot of money, with a good contract, so it would be difficult to find another solution.

“Also I think he is not the one Juventus want to sell. (Sami) Khedira is the one. (Blaise) Matuidi has finished his contract. So I think Ramsey will stay at Juventus.”

Everton are thought to be on the look out for a new midfielder this summer, and Ramsey could have been an appealing addition to their squad.

The 29-year-old was one of the best players in his position during his previous spell in the Premier League with Arsenal.

The financial complications always made a potential deal for Everton look difficult to complete though.

And it seems that the Toffees will have to look for alternative targets if they are to bring in more quality this summer.
