Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey reportedly has his heart set on a summer move to Juventus.
The 28-year-old will be free to talk to foreign clubs in January as his current deal at the Emirates Stadium enters its final six months.
Paris Saint-Germain are likely to rival Juve for Ramsey's signature on a free transfer but, according to Tuttosport, the Welshman is 'increasingly tempted' by the prospect of a summer switch to Turin.
The Italian newspaper adds that all clues suggest Ramsey and Juventus 'will be wed' at the end of the season.
Ramsey has been at Arsenal since 2008 and has three FA Cups to show for his decade in London.
A move to Juventus would surely see Ramsey add to his list of team honours. Juve have been champions of Italy for seven successive seasons and are well on course to extend that dominant streak to eight this term.
Ramsey is not the only player Juve are looking at. Friday's Tuttosport front page also features the names of 18-year-olds Jean-Clair Todibo and Francisco Trincao who are said to be wanted by the Serie A giants.
Todibo is currently making his name as a versatile midfielder and centre back at Toulouse, while Portuguese forward Trincao is on the books at Braga.

The fact that PSG and Juventus want him should tell you everything you need to know. Him in midfield alongside Torreira or as a number 10 behind Auba all day long but no let him leave on a free, seems like good business.

Still amazed that Arsenal are letting him go.... they'll have to pay £50m to replace him. It makes no sense at all, especially when he always gives 100% while Ozil is obviously not pulling his weight. Something's not right here.....

If it's free, it sounds like summer to avoid any cost. Get the sense Arsenal still want him around until the end of the season anyway. I think it's January/February that clubs can negotiate a free transfer deal for summer?

If Aaron Ramsey joins Juventus for free in the summer, He'll be 8th free transfer of Juventus in the last 10 years: 2009: Fabio Cannavaro 2011: Andrea Pirlo 2012: Paul Pogba 2014: Kingsley Coman 2015: Sami Khedira 2016: Dani Alves 2018: Emre Can 2019: Aaron Ramsey❓

Better than both Bentacur and Can. Can be played next to dybala if Costa moves to UTD. Future is bright for him

There is no way he is going to see any time ahead of Pjanic, Bentancur, or Khedira. In fact, I'll put Emre Can ahead of him too. So, he would effectively be a second choice sub. That said, no one would mind a free bench-warmer.
