# Aaron Ramsey would bring the best out of Theo Walcott if he joined Everton

**Everton should definitely throw their hat in the ring to sign Aaron Ramsey if he does eventually leave Arsenal.**

The Welshman is Arsenal’s longest-serving player and was expected to put pen-to-paper on a new deal this summer. Contract negotiations stalled initially but were set to be resolved before Arsenal decided to retract their offer. The Gunners are now [resigned](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/45663651) to losing the Wales international on a free transfer and could choose to cut their losses when the window reopens in January.

Ramsey has been a crucial player for the club since joining from Cardiff City back in 2012. It seems Unai Emery sees no place for him in his first-team plans and Ramsey has attracted plenty of attention from Premier League and European clubs. There is no reason why Everton shouldn’t enter the race for his signature.

Valued at £40.5m by [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/aaron-ramsey/profil/spieler/50057), Ramsey could be the perfect partner for Idrissa Gueye in the heart of midfield. The midfielder would struggle to break into the first-team at the likes of Liverpool and Chelsea while Everton could offer him the chance to play regular football in the starting XI. A move to Goodison Park would also see him reunite with Theo Walcott who joined from Arsenal back in January. Ramsey would demand huge wages in order to make a move to Merseyside, but Everton should have no trouble in putting together a suitable financial package.

The 27-year-old is a dynamic midfielder who would slot seamlessly into Marco Silva’s system and could develop quickly into a crucial player for the Blues. With plenty of Premier League and European experience, his arrival could be the boost Everton need to end the season in a European spot.
