Supporters are concerned that Aaron Ramsey’s playing days might be numbered. The Arsenal icon was forced to leave the pitch due to yet another injury.
Ramsey, 34, walked off the field during Cardiff’s 2-1 defeat at home against Luton on Tuesday.
The Welsh midfielder only played for 49 minutes before being substituted by Sivert Mannsverk.
This is the most recent in a series of long-term injuries he has experienced while playing for Cardiff.
Ramsey, a celebrated figure at Arsenal, rejoined his boyhood club Cardiff in July 2023. However, he sustained a knee injury just a few months into his return.
That injury kept him out of action for almost three months.
Unfortunately, a year later, Ramsey faced an even more significant setback, tearing his hamstring in September. He only made his comeback last month.
In total, he has only played 22 games in his second stint with Cardiff.
Now, fans speculate that Ramsey’s most recent injury could signal the end of his time with the Welsh team, and possibly his entire football career.
One fan commented, “I’m afraid that was his last game for the club.”
Another suggested, “It wouldn’t be a surprise if he retires.”
Someone else noted, “He’ll be injured for the rest of the season.”
Another person added, “This just can’t continue to happen.”
Ramsey, who has also played for Juventus, Nice, and Rangers, became famous during his 11 years at Arsenal.
He made 369 appearances for Arsenal and won three FA Cups with them.
However, his injury problems began back in 2010 when he was still with Arsenal.
Ramsey suffered a broken leg following a challenge from Stoke player Ryan Shawcross, which sidelined him for nine months.
During his time in London, he went on to suffer numerous hamstring, thigh, groin, and calf injuries.
These injury issues continued to trouble him even when he played abroad, before he returned to Cardiff.
