Old Trafford boss is a big fan of the Welshman and is looking to bring in another midfielder to strengthen his squad
JOSE MOURINHO is planning a summer raid for Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey, according to reports.
The Manchester United boss is a big fan of the Welshman and is looking to bring in another midfielder to strengthen his squad.
And the are reporting that Ramsey, 27, is being targeted by Mourinho as he only has one more season left on his contract.
The report also claims that Chelsea are interested in the former Cardiff man.
Mourinho is impressed with Ramsey’s ability as a box-to-box midfielder, which he sees as something that is missing from his current United crop.
Arsenal are trying to tie down Ramsey to a new contract and avoid a situation like what happened with Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil.
The Gunners duo effectively strong-armed the club by running down their contracts before Ozil signed a new deal and Sanchez left for Manchester United.
The Star also report that Ramsey is considering switching clubs as he has not always been the first name on the team sheet for Arsene Wenger.
