Remember The Time Manchester United Announced Aaron Ramsey Signing

Aaron Ramsey rose to prominence following the Welshman's exploits with Cardiff City prompting a host of sides in pursuit of his signature to acquire his services including Manchester United. And about that supposed deal.

United face Arsenal on Saturday as managers Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger lock horns, resuming their heated rivalry.

Meanwhile, ahead of the game, Ramsey revealed the reasoning on why he opted for North London instead of Manchester claiming he felt more wanted by Arsenal and the boss.

But United where very close to snapping up the highly-touted prospect. How close? Well, they even published an article detailing how a fee had been agreed with both parties.

Awkward.
