Aaron Ramsey Delighted Wenger Got A New Deal

Wales and Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has insisted Arsenal's players are delighted that Arsene Wenger has signed a contract extension at the club. Wenger ended months of speculation when he signed a new two-year deal after guiding the club to their FA Cup in four seasons.

Ramsey admits the intense debate surrounding Wenger's future over the last few months took its toll on the players but he says he and his team-mates owe it to the Frenchman to improve next season.

He said “It is hard when all that speculation is going on, as a player, you try to put it to the back of your mind but obviously you are not sure what is happening. We're glad now that it has finally been announced he's staying. We're all happy. Hopefully now we can start the season strongly and have a real good go, not just for ourselves but for him as well.”
