Aaron James Ramsey is a Welsh footballer who plays for Arsenal and captains the Wales national football team. A central attacking midfielder with a wide range of passing, he established himself as a playmaker for Arsenal following the departure of Cesc Fabregas. Ramsey played for Cardiff City as a schoolboy where he spent eight years in youth football before making 16 appearances for the senior team. Ramsey moved to Arsenal in 2008 in a 5 million deal, where he quickly gained first team experience.

Wales captain Aaron Ramsey performed well in what was, effectively, his first full season in the Gunners' first team.

Having seen the previous two campaigns disrupted by a leg fracture sustained against Stoke in February 2010, Aaron was a regular in the midfield during 2011/12 and made some vital contributions.

These included an assist for Theo Walcott in the home leg of the Champions League qualifier against Udinese, a dramatic group stage winner in Marseille, an equaliser against Tottenham at White Hart Lane and an excellent strike in the Premier League match at Sunderland.

A midfielder with fine technique, tireless energy and clever movement, he could be seen appearing in goalscoring positions throughout the campaign - and will be hoping to find the target more regularly this term.

Aaron joined Arsenal from Cardiff City in the summer of 2008 at the age of just 17. He had already become the youngest player to represent the Bluebirds, at 16 years and 124 days, and hit another milestone when he became the fifth-youngest scorer in Champions League history against Fenerbahce.

His progress was checked by that injury the following season, but loan spells with Nottingham Forest and former club Cardiff completed his rehabilitation and he was handed the Wales armband by late manager Gary Speed in March 2011. Aaron will now look to lead his country into the qualifiers for the 2014 World Cup.
