Aaron Ramsey continues his career. His destination is surprisingly Mexico.

Citing the PA news agency, the BBC reported on the 8th (Korea time) that Ramsey agreed to travel to Mexico's Pumas UNAM. The move will make Ramsey the first star-studded British player to play in the Mexican league.

Ramsey is one of the best players of all time in Wales. Ramsey made his debut for Cardiff City in the 2006-2007 season and moved to Arsenal in the 2008-2009 season. Ramsey, dubbed Wales' Fabregas, was considered the best midfielder in the English Premier League, boasting excellent skills, passing skills and a wide range of activities. He played for Arsenal in the 2018-2019 season, scoring 64 goals and 60 assists in 369 games.




After that, Ramsey, who went through Italy's prestigious Juventus and France's Nice, returned to his hometown team Cardiff City in the 2023-2024 season.

He also played very well in the national team. Ramsey, who joined the Welsh national team in 2008, led Welsh football with Gareth Bale. Ryan Giggs also made a series of great achievements that he couldn't do. It reached the quarterfinals of Euro 2016 and the round of 16 of Euro 2020. He advanced to the Qatar World Cup in 2022 and achieved his first World Cup finals in 64 years. He scored 21 goals in 86 games.

Ramsey took over as acting coach at the end of the 2024-2025 season. When 외merija was replaced, he instead took the helm and led Cardiff City as a player-manager. He had two draws and one loss in three games. Cardiff City have been relegated but have indicated they will continue to give Ramsey the helm. Ramsey, however, has still shown regret over his career. Ramsey is aiming to play in the 2026 World Cup in North Korea and the U.S., although his condition is poor enough to play only eight games this season. In an interview in April, he said "I still want to play. The World Cup is a huge motivation for me."




Ramsey, who was at the crossroads of active extension and leader transformation, eventually chose the player. There is a reason why he chose Mexico. Ramsey's agent manages pumas director Efrain Juarez. This connection led to Ramsey continuing his career at Pumas.
