Unai Emery has praised Aaron Ramsey for his professional this season.

A hamstring tear has meant the Welshman has played his last game for the Gunners, with a move to Juventus set for the summer.

Speaking before Thursday's Europa League semi-final against Valencia, Emery left some kind words for the departing midfielder.

"Aaron played so many years here, he is so important for the club and the players because he did so much for the new players.

'He signed for Juventus but he is still a professional and always fought for the club.

"Some other players might stop fighting – but he loves this club so he stayed 100 per cent. He has a great mentality. I will miss him a lot – we have good memories."
