Aaron Ramsey is tipped to leave Juventus, with Everton reportedly in pole position to secure the player’s services.
After playing just five games under Massimiliano Allegri this term, Ramsey is looking for an escape route from Turin.
His agent met Juventus in Turin yesterday and Football Italia can confirm the two parties are not considering terminating the player’s contract by mutual agreement in January.
However, Juventus are open to letting Ramsey go for free as his €7m-a-year contract expires in June 2023.
Ramsey joined Juventus from Arsenal on a free transfer in June 2019.
According to multiple reports in Italy and England, Everton are the club in pole position to sign the former Gunner.
Tuttosport reports Newcastle are also in the race to sign the 30-year-old, but his salary could be an issue in negotiations with suitors interested in securing his services.
The Turin-based paper even writes that selling Ramsey is a ‘heroic mission’ for the Bianconeri.
Both Juventus and Ramsey are determined to move on and find a new club for the player in January.
The former Arsenal man is among the highest earners at the Allianz Stadium.
Only Matthijs de Ligt gets more than he with an €8m-a-year salary plus €4m add-ons, while Paulo Dybala and Adrien Rabiot earn €7m-a-year, just like Ramsey.
