Aaron Ramsey set for shock Rangers transfer as former Arsenal midfielder arrives for medical ahead of loan from Juventus

AARON RAMSEY is set for a shock loan move to Rangers after arriving in Scotland for his medical.

SunSport exclusively revealed this morning that Ramsey, 31, had jetted off from Juventus in search of a new team.

An unnamed Premier League side and one top continental club were both eager to land the ex-Arsenal star.

But Ramsey has plumped for Scottish champions Rangers after being swayed by boss Giovanni Van Bronckhorst.

The Wales international is now in Glasgow to undergo his medical.

And Ramsey’s first appearance for Rangers could come in Wednesday’s Old Firm derby at Celtic.

Wolves had been linked after failing to land Ramsey last summer.

But they ruled themselves out of the running for a deadline day swoop.

Ramsey’s move to Rangers had at first appeared impossible due to the player’s £400,000-a-week wages.

However, Juventus have agreed to pay the bulk of Ramsey’s salary in return for a £2million loan fee until the end of the season, with a £4.6m option to buy.

That option becomes obligatory if Rangers retain their title.

SunSport understands the former Arsenal midfielder had already turned down offers from four Premier League clubs, as well as two Serie A rivals and two clubs in Spain’s La Liga.

Turkish giants Galatasaray and Fenerbahce were also understood to have been keen to sign Ramsey, with more interest from Germany and Russia too.
