Aaron Ramsey signs back at his boyhood club on same day as his son, Sonny

CARDIFF CITY fans received a momentous surprise when Aaron Ramsey, one of the most renowned footballers from the Welsh capital, returned to his boyhood club after a prolonged period of anticipation. In an astonishing deal, Ramsey has committed to playing for the Bluebirds for a minimum of two years. However, the unexpected twist came in the form of an additional signing. Alongside Ramsey’s return, Cardiff City announced that his eldest son, Sonny, aged seven, has also signed an intent-to-sign contract, paving the way for him to join the club’s academy upon turning eight.

The emotional significance of this move for Ramsey, now 32, cannot be understated. Rejoining the club that holds a special place in his heart, where his footballing journey began, has added an extra layer of pride and sentiment to this homecoming. Ramsey took to Twitter to express his overwhelming emotions, stating, “It’s an unbelievable feeling to be back at home – although I feel as if I never really left. Wherever I went, it was always a part of me, and now I can’t wait to go out there in the blue shirt again. What makes it even better was my boy also signed for Cardiff academy the same day, which was a special moment for us both.”

Ramsey’s joy was palpable as he shared photos and videos on social media on Saturday night. The visuals showcased both father and son fully equipped in the new home strip, proudly posing inside Cardiff City Stadium. One heartwarming video captured the pair hand in hand, emerging from the tunnel and stepping onto the pitch together, both adorned with the iconic No.10 jersey.

The official announcement from Cardiff City encapsulated the significance of this dual signing, stating, “The Cardiff City journey of another member of the Ramsey family started at the same time Aaron’s return was made official. Sonny Ramsey, Aaron’s oldest son, put pen-to-paper on a letter of intent. Great to have you with us too, Sonny!”

The return of Aaron Ramsey and the inclusion of his son, Sonny, in Cardiff City’s future plans has undoubtedly sparked excitement and sentimental feelings among the club’s fans. With Ramsey’s prodigious talent and deep connection to the club, his homecoming promises to be a significant chapter in the history of Cardiff City.
