Aaron Ramsey has said that he is "proud" that he can speak Welsh after receiving a number of abusive messages on Twitter for posting in the language.

The Arsenal midfielder shared a picture of his wedding day with the caption "Un flwyddyn heddiw", meaning "one year today", to celebrate his anniversary, resulting in some of his followers asking if he was drunk tweeting, while one asked if he was "having a seizure".

However, after many tweeted their support for his use of the language, the Wales international said: "Thanks to all the nice and supportive tweets about the Welsh language. Proud to speak it and will continue to use it on Twitter."

Ramsey has made 34 international appearances for Wales.
