However, the Welshman has not exactly shoved it in anyone\u2019s face. Instead, he has just got on with his football and has still done his utmost to help the Gunners finish strongly.<\/p>\n<h1>Arsenal\u2019s Aaron Ramsey Should Be An Example to Every Footballer<\/h1>\n<h2>Aaron Ramsey Has Shown His Class<\/h2>\n<p>A number of players have looked to push through transfer deals in the past when other clubs have been touted with possible moves. Just look at the likes of <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/e06683ca\/Virgil-van-Dijk\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Virgil van Dijk<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/0ef89a37\/Philippe-Coutinho\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Philippe Coutinho<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/b19db005\/Ousmane-Dembele\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ousmane Dembele<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/42fd9c7f\/Kylian-Mbappe\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kylian Mbappe<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/58ae47b2\/Dimitri-Payet\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dimitri Payet<\/a> before they all achieved their \u2018dream switches\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, it is not too uncommon to see \u2018player power\u2019 take full advantage and leave a club feeling held to ransom by an individual because they can not get their own way. Players have refused to play because they have not been happy with the decisions that have been made.<\/p>\n<p>However, Ramsey has shown his class by just getting on with what he is paid to do. Which is quite simple \u2013 and that is to play football.<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned, the midfielder has continued to burst lungs in the middle of the park for Unai Emery\u2019s side this season. He has helped them to a quarter-final place in the Europa League. He has also kept them in the race for a top-four finish in the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/category\/premier-league\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Premier League<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, he has done this despite not being an Arsenal player next season, because he is a pure professional.<\/p>\n<h2>Ramsey Showing Why Juventus Signed Him<\/h2>\n<p>There is no doubting Ramsey\u2019s quality. He is an excellent midfielder and can be considered one of the best on his day \u2013 and often under-rated.<\/p>\n<p>Juventus will be delighted that they are getting a player of his class in the summer as he will certainly add quality to their team. He has also shown that he will do what is asked of him, even if he will not benefit from it in the future.<\/p>\n<h2>Ramsey\u2019s Actions Should be Copied by Others in the Game<\/h2>\n<p>It does just seem ridiculous to be praising a footballer, who is earning an outrageous amount of money, to just focus on his job. Hell, plenty of people would love to be playing football at the highest level for nothing!<\/p>\n<p>It can not go unnoticed, though, as so many of his colleagues have not managed to stay professional and have thrown their toys out of the pram at the first occasion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/892d5bb1\/Riyad-Mahrez\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Riyad Mahrez<\/a> is an exception as he showed the same level of professionalism with <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/category\/premier-league\/leicester\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Leicester City<\/a> despite his desires to move to <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/category\/premier-league\/manchester-city\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Manchester City<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe, though, a few other footballers could look to copy the Arsenal midfielder and just get on with the task at hand \u2013 rather than upset everybody possibly connected with the club and make themselves the villain.<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"q5e9qfCOSBNi6PSFepLfxA\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1130718935\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'q5e9qfCOSBNi6PSFepLfxA',sig:'E7mfmENrrMgmoAepq9z4swZ5TwCs6CMbBSIiqL8aWgs=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1130718935',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everybody knows that Arsenal\u2019s Aaron Ramsey is set to join Juventus in the summer on a free transfer.
