da bet7: Arsenal may have to consider a swap deal with Barcelona involving Aaron Ramsey and Ousmane Dembele, according to The Sun.
What’s the word?
da bet7: The Gunners could potentially find themselves in a tricky position with regards to Ramsey’s future.
The midfielder has entered the final year of his contract and is yet to pen fresh terms at the Emirates.
If Ramsey does not sign a new deal, then he can leave on a free transfer this time next year.
With that in mind, The Sun has reported that the Wales international could be used in a swap deal with Barcelona winger Dembele.
The two-footed Frenchman failed to make an impact in his debut season following last year’s switch from Borussia Dortmund.
The attack-minded star struggled with injury issues and lack of form.
Is this a good swap?
Ramsey has had moments of inconsistency during his 10 years at Arsenal, but last season he impressed in Arsene Wenger’s final flourish.
The 27-year-old still has plenty to offer, but if he is undecided on his future, then it the club should certainly consider a deal with Barcelona.
Questions have been raised over Dembele’s attitude, but there is no doubt that he is a hugely talented player.
The Frenchman possesses speed and trickery along the flanks, and his arrival would send a big message to Arsenal’s rivals.
Emery has been sensible with his transfer purchases so far, but a marquee signing would boost confidence ahead of the new season.
