Serie A giants, Juventus, have won the race to sign Arsenal star midfielder, Aaron Ramsey.
According to a UK Metro report, the midfielder has signed a pre-contract agreement with the Turin outfit ahead of his summer move.
Ramsey has entered the final 12 months of his current deal at Arsenal, and was free to engage any European club interested in his services as of Tuesday, January 2.
He was on the verge of penning a new deal with the Gunners in October 2018, but the club chiefs withdrew their offer on the advice of new manager, Unai Emery.
His uncertain future at the Emirates put several European clubs, including the likes of Chelsea, PSG, Milan and Juventus on red alert.
However, it has now emerged that Juventus have won that race, with the 27-year-old expected to complete his move to Italy at the end of the season.
According to reports, the Welshman has since agreed a deal worth £5.84million-a-year, and an official announcement will be made imminently.
The ex Cardiff City star will further earn a €500k bonus should he play 50% of games per season
Ramsey, who joined Arsenal a decade ago from Cardiff City has enjoyed a successive with the Gunners, winning several titles including the FA Cup.
He has been in terrific form under Emery, scoring crucial goals including one in the New Year's Day win over Fulham and is in contention to feature as Arsenal start their FA Cup campaign at Blackpool this weekend.
