Meanwhile, 10 days later Ramsey joined Arsenal. The main reason he chose Arsenal ahead of the other clubs that pursued his signature was the approach of Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger, who flew him and his family to Switzerland to talk about the plans Wenger had for him and his potential future with Arsenal.

Wow!!Was it that close?He could have became our main player if he signed for us!!Thanks for the fact though.
