Aaron Ramsey is now certain to leave Arsenal – or, at least he is in the mind of Craig Bellamy.
The midfielder’s contract is set to expire at the Emirates in the summer, and negotiations to tie the 27-year-old to the red half of North London have reportedly broken down, with no suggestions they will resume.
Various clubs have been linked with making a move for the Welshman, including Liverpool and Spurs.
In the mind of Bellamy, Ramsey’s departure is assured.
The pundit was speaking on Sky Sports’ The Debate, where he said (quoted by Football London):
I think they’ve lost him already – I think he’s gone,
Come January or the summer, he’ll be going somewhere else. Four or five years ago, every club wanted him – Manchester City, Barcelona.
I think it’s time for him to move on.
He’s become conscious of some players that have stayed too long at Arsenal and not got the best out of their ability.
Joining the Gunners from Cardiff in 2008, Ramsey has made 340 appearances in his decade at the club, becoming a fan-favourite in that time.
Ramsey has appeared nine times this season under Unai Emery, but Bellamy is convinced his former Wales teammate needs a change of scenery:
Unai Emery will be a good manager for him but he needs a change.
