Arsenal Transfer News: Aaron Ramsey 'Holds the Power' in Contract Talks

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey is said to hold the greater share of power in negotiations with the club after the Gunners pulled out of talks despite their star being in the last year of his deal.

The Guardian's Dominic Fifield appeared on Sky Sports' Sunday Supplement (h/t Daily Star's Mark Taylor) and said Ramsey can command a bigger wage if he leaves for free next summer. When asked if he was in a commanding position, Fifield replied:

“Yes he is, because if he resists being sold in January then he'll command a higher wage at his next club.
