Aaron Ramsey: Oxford United appoint ex-Arsenal midfielder as head coach

Former Arsenal and Wales midfielder Aaron Ramsey has been appointed Oxford United head coach.

The 35-year-old arrives at Kassam Stadium following the sacking of Matt Bloomfield on Saturday.

Ramsey’s only managerial experience was at the end of the 2024-25 season when he took charge of Cardiff for a brief spell in an interim role.

“From my discussions with the club, I can sense the ambition and desire for success, which gives me great excitement about this opportunity,” Ramsey said.

“This is a moment I have been preparing for over many years. I’ve played under some of the best managers in the game and experienced high-pressure environments throughout my career.

“I want to use what I’ve learned to bring a culture of high standards, professionalism and work ethic to this talented group of players.

“My teams will play with a clear identity, be built on elite habits, with a commitment to improving every day.

“I want a squad that fights for the badge until the end, and one that makes our supporters proud.”
