Arsenal once again look like firm challengers for the Premier League title.

 

The North Londoners have made a productive start to the new campaign as they reside just a point adrift of league leaders Liverpool.

Summer signings Riccardo Calafiori, Mikel Merino and Raheem Sterling are starting to adjust to their new surroundings with the former now a regular in Mikel Arteta’s side.

Already, Arsenal chiefs are drawing up transfer plans ahead of the January window and with that said, it’s just come to light that they’re keeping tabs on a Premier League playmaker.

 

Arsenal is considering Jacob Ramsey of Aston Villa.GiveMeSport claims that Arsenal is considering Aston Villa’s Jacob Ramsey, a playmaker.

Ramsey’s contract expires in 2026, therefore the Villans are ready to cash in on him the following year in an attempt to keep him from leaving for a lesser sum.

While Newcastle United is also a potential threat, Tottenham Hotspur, a rival team in North London, is closely monitoring Ramsey’s circumstances.

 

Villa is hoping to get bids close to £50 million.

In terms of pass completion rate per 90, the 23-year-old is among the top 8% of positional peers in Europe.

 

Furthermore, Ramsey’s fundamental statistics genuinely resemble Bernardo Silva of Manchester City, therefore it’s obvious that Arsenal would be getting a top-tier offensive midfield player if they signed him.
