How will Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey fit in Juventus? | Football News

Aaron Ramsey will join Juventus this summer at Arsenal

Aaron Ramsey's summer transfer from Arsenal to Juventus has been confirmed. Ramsey will join the leaders of Serie A to play alongside Cristiano Ronaldo, Paulo Dybala, Miralem Pjanic and many of the best European players. So where is Ramsey?

He does not have the star power of Ronaldo, but Ramsey looks like a typical Juventus rookie in the midfield in recent years.

In 2011 Andrea Pirlo, 31, was transferred free of charge. A year later, they received Paul Pogba free for Manchester United, and in 2015, they signed Sami Khedira, 28, for a free transfer from Real Madrid. Blaise Matuidi, 30, followed for a seemingly reduced price of £ 18.2m in 2017. Last summer, they recovered Liverpool's Emre Can against a free transfer.

Now, they get 28-year-old Ramsey for free, though his salary is high enough to make him the highest paid British player of all time.

The above suggests not only that Juventus attaches great importance to its experience in its midfield – and that it does not usually spend much on acquiring it – but that it also shows the competition that Ramsey must make. face. Some of them anyway.

There is also Pjanic and Rodrigo Bentancur.

The most favored formation of Juventus this season has been a 4-3-3 with Ronaldo, Mario Mandzukic and Dybala leading the attack and Bentancur, Pjanic and Matuidi in the middle of the field.

While Juve already seems to have plenty of options, Ramsey could add a different factor when he rejoins the club at the end of the season.

He prefers to play the role of central offensive midfielder and is known for his delay in the area, his creativity and his goals, which Juventus misses in midfield.

The Juventus midfielder has scored more than two goals in Serie A this season, while Khedira had scored nine in last season. Pjanic was the top scorer five times. In 2016/17, the Juventus midfielder who scored the most goals again scored five goals, while Pogba reached eight goals in Serie A in 2015/16.

It should also be noted that Ramsey has provided six badists in the Premier League this season. It's three more than any Juventus midfielder – although the Welsh has only started nine league games.

It has been reported that Ramsey's wish to play a more advanced role in midfield is one of the reasons he leaves Arsenal.

Although it may not match the plans of Unai Emery, Heaven in Italy The journalist Francesco Cosatti thinks that Ramsey could be a good way for the Allegri team.

"He is a sporty player with a good sense of purpose and is perfect for playing with Ronaldo and Mandzukic.

"I think Bentancur and Emre may have similar qualities to Ramsey's, but they do not have the same ability to score goals as Ramsey."

While Pogba played largely to the left of Juventus midfielder, Ramsey will likely prefer a more central role. Juve hopes to score some midfield goals since Pogba's departure.

Italian legend Pirlo, who signed a free transfer in 2011 with Juventus, described Ramsey as a "good buy".

"He's a talented player," he said. Heaven in Italy. "He's a complete player who knows how to do just about anything, and he scores a lot – Juventus is preparing another great deal – he's a strong player who could do very well."

With his current contract and no new deal on the horizon, Ramsey has been in and out of the Arsenal side this season. His teammate Laurent Koscielny, among others, stressed his professionalism.

"Sometimes players just think of themselves before the club, but it's a very good professional.It will give 100% for the club until the end."

This work ethic will probably serve him well under Allegri.

Ramsey will not be a guaranteed starter every week for Juventus because Allegri likes to run his team, with only Ronaldo starting more than 20 Serie A matches (out of a maximum of 23) for Juve this season and the midfielder brewed regularly.

Dybala and Mandzukic have both started 17 league games and the former could be touched by the arrival of Ramsey. We already wonder if Ronaldo and Dybala can play together, and Ramsey could occupy spaces similar to those of Dybala in offensive positions.

But with Matuidi and Khedira soon to be 32 years old and Can not really impressed since moving to Liverpool, there may be an opening for Ramsey.

The former Welsh manager John Toshack, who has already headed several times abroad, thinks that Ramsey 's versatility could help him to settle in Turin.

"I do not know if Aaron is disciplined enough to play in front of the defense, nor am I sure he scores enough to play near the attackers," he said. The Gazzetta dello Sport.

"He could do better in a three-man midfield, where he has the opportunity to progress, or maybe in a three-for-center support." In modern football, one has to be versatile and he is a modern player. "

Ramsey follows in the footsteps of two legends from Wales who joined Juventus. John Charles is considered the best foreign player of the club, but Ian Rush, on the other hand, has spent only one season at the club. He is best remembered, apparently saying that it was like "living in a foreign country".

Where will Ramsey be between his two Welsh predecessors?
