Here is an interesting plot twist that will interest many in North London.

Jose Mourinho is set to bring former Arsenal vice-captain Aaron Ramsey back to North London, to Tottenham this summer.

The former Arsenal man, 29, joined the reigning Serie A champions last summer on a free transfer but has struggled to make an impact in Turin so far.
