According to the German media, Bayern Munich don’t have any agreement with Aaron Ramsey over a transfer next summer, despite recent reports to the contrary.

The Independent claimed this week that Bayern were confident they’d won the race to sign Ramsey, after a recent breakthrough in talks. They added that the Welshman was expected to sign a long-term contract with the Bundesliga club from the start of next season.

However, usually-reliable German outlet Bild now say that story is false, in an article titled ‘that’s it for Bavaria’s alleged Ramsey deal’.

According to their information, there can’t be any realistic claims of an agreement between the two parties ‘for a long time’. They add that Ramsey will be offered to ‘several clubs’ in Europe, and Bayern are just one of them.

It does seem a little early for the 27-year-old to be making any final decisions. The offers will presumably come rolling in during the January window, and a key injury or transfer here or there may open the door to a desirable move. Giving that option up now would be a bit shortsighted.

For now, it’s better for Ramsey to just continue focusing on his football and on getting results for Arsenal. That will get him a better move at the end of the season, or maybe even another chance with the Gunners. We’ll see.
