Aaron Ramsey Reflects on Departure from UNAM Pumas

Unexpected Exit from Mexico

Wales international Aaron Ramsey has revealed that his decision to leave UNAM Pumas was not one he made himself. His time in Mexico came with challenges, as he only participated in six matches before he faced a hamstring injury and also dealt with the disappearance of his family’s pet dog.

Gratitude Expressed

Ramsey shared his thoughts on Instagram, expressing his appreciation for the warmth and hospitality of the Mexican people that welcomed him and his family to Mexico City. He stated, “I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the Mexican community for their kindness and for making us feel at home.”

He also acknowledged the support he received, particularly from the coaching and medical teams, saying, “A special thank you to the manager, coaching staff, and especially the medical team for guiding me through what turned out to be a challenging period due to injuries.”

Hopes for the Future

The former Arsenal and Cardiff City player expressed his eagerness to contribute more to the Pumas, saying, “With their assistance and my dedication, I was ready and fit for the upcoming matches, and I was excited to give my best for the team.”

However, he shared his disappointment regarding the unexpected termination of his contract, stating, “It was a surprise and clearly disheartening. Hence, I had no option but to return home to Wales.”

In closing, Ramsey reaffirmed his appreciation for the support he received during his tenure in Mexico, emphasizing its beauty and stating, “We will certainly plan to return for a visit in the near future.”
