Arsenal boss Unai Emery blocked a swap deal this month which would have seen Aaron Ramsey join Juventus, with Medhi Benatia heading to the Emirates.

Ramsey has reportedly signed a pre-contract agreement with Juve and will join as a free agent in the summer.

Benatia has agreed to leave Juventus for Qatari side Al-Duhail.

However, the Moroccan defender was initially offered to the Gunners as part of a swap deal for Ramsey, which Emery promptly rejected, according to Tutto Mercato Web.

The report claims Emery decided against the move because of the return of Laurent Koscielny from injury.
