Gunners turn down late bid

Arsenal turned down a late bid for Aaron Ramsey from Cardiff City, who wanted to take him back to Ninian Park on loan.

The 17-year-old midfielder only joined the Gunners from Cardiff back in June for £4.8million, but the Bluebirds were hoping that Arsene Wenger would allow him to go back on loan.

However the Frenchman, who has plans for the talented midfielder this season and is likely to blood him in the Carling Cup, turned down the approach.
