Ramsey has no plans to force early Arsenal exit
Despite being in the final year of his contract, Aaron Ramsey has reaffirmed his commitment to Arsenal for the rest of the season.
Aaron Ramsey remains committed to Arsenal for the rest of the season even though talks over a new contract have collapsed.
The Wales international is in the final year of his current deal and is set to become a free agent at the end of the 2018-19 campaign.
Liverpool and Manchester United have been linked with the midfielder, while there is also rumoured to be interest from reigning Serie A champions Juventus.
The breakdown in talks over extending his stay at Emirates Stadium has led to speculation Ramsey could even depart in January, but the player has reaffirmed his commitment to his current employers.
"Of course, yeah," he replied when asked if he could stay at Arsenal for the remainder of the campaign.
"I am contracted to Arsenal and I am going to do my best now this season to try and achieve something special."
Ramsey joined the Gunners from Cardiff City in June 2008 and has won the FA Cup three times with the London club.
