Arsenal to offer Aaron Ramsey a new deal

Aaron Ramsey who scored a hattrick at the weekend against Everton is in the last 18 months of his Arsenal contract. The Gunners want to offer him a new deal but fear that the arrival of two big names in January and the extension of Mesut Ozil's contract will make Ramsey ask for wage parity with the top earners of the club.

Ramsey, 27, has six goals and six assists to his name this season. The Mirror reports that the negotiations with the Welsh midfielder are expected to cause headaches for the club hierarchy.

Joe Hart on Chelsea's radar

Chelsea's Thibaut Courtois is linked with a summer move to Real Madrid with the Belgian goalkeeper eyeing a return to Spain. The Blues have offered him a new deal but are not sure about Courtois' intentions to stay at the club.

The Sun claims that Chelsea have identified Joe Hart as a potential replacement for Thibaut Courtois. Hart is currently on loan at West Ham United from Manchester City. The 30-year-old will be looking for a new club in the summer with City keen on cutting their losses on him.
