Aaron Ramsey eyeing Arsenal captaincy

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey admits that captaining the Gunners is 'something he would like to do one day'.

Aaron Ramsey has admitted that he harbours hopes of one day captaining Arsenal.

The 24-year-old midfielder was given the armband in the Gunners' recent friendly victory over Boreham Wood.

Having spent seven years in North London, Ramsey now believes that he is in a position to skipper his side after gaining experience in the role with national side Wales in the past.

"I've made a load of appearances now, I definitely feel one of the leaders, but I feel this group of players all have their own leadership skills," he told ESPN.

"It was nice to be given the armband, even though it was just a pre-season friendly, but it's something I would like to do one day, to be captain.

"It's a great honour and achievement to do that, I've had experience of doing it with my country, it would be nice to do that [for Arsenal] one day."

Ramsey joined Arsenal from Cardiff City in 2008 for a fee in the region of £5m.
