Aaron Ramsey, the 34-year-old Welsh midfielder and former captain of the Wales national team, has officially signed a one-year contract with Liga MX club Pumas UNAM ahead of the Apertura 2025 season. Ramsey, who has played for prominent European clubs including Arsenal, Juventus, Cardiff City, Nottingham Forest, Rangers, and Nice, arrived in Mexico City in late June 2025 to complete his medical and finalize the deal. His transfer was publicly confirmed by Josefa González Blanco, the Mexican ambassador to the United Kingdom, who welcomed him and revealed his imminent arrival. Ramsey chose Pumas despite offers from Saudi Arabia and the UAE, citing the influence of Pumas coach Efraín Juárez as a decisive factor in his decision. Juárez reportedly first contacted Ramsey while coaching in Colombia and emphasized that Ramsey's move was motivated by commitment rather than financial incentives. Ramsey expressed excitement about joining the historic club and his readiness to contribute to its success. He was presented officially by Pumas president Luis Raúl González and assigned the number 10 jersey, previously worn by Leo Suárez. Ramsey's arrival marks the first time a Welsh player has joined Liga MX, making Wales the 52nd nationality represented in the league. Ahead of the Apertura 2025, Ramsey participated in Pumas' pre-season activities, including a 2-0 friendly victory over Leganés at the Pumas Fan Fest, where he was introduced to fans. The signing is viewed as a major reinforcement for Pumas, with expectations high for Ramsey to make a significant impact in Mexican football.
