New Rangers star Aaron Ramsey has received an Instagram message from Juventus striker Alvaro Morata, after completing a loan move to Ibrox. In one of the shock moves on Monday, Ramsey has joined until the summer.
Ramsey, 31, has penned a loan deal until the end of the season with some reports suggesting a permanent clause has been included in the deal. It sees Ramsey return the United Kingdom, after two and a half years at Juventus.
He joined the Old Lady from Arsenal in the summer of 2019, after 371 appearances for the Gunners. But he failed to replicate his Gunners form in Italy, managing just 12 goal involvements in 70 appearances for Juve.
Despite his lack of game time and fitness struggles, Ramsey is seen as an enormous coup – Kris Boyd comparing him to Paul Gascoigne. Responding to his move on Instagram, Morata sent the midfielder a message.
Morata on Ramsey: Where should Rangers use their new signing?
Ramsey is obviously a central midfielder, but the Wales star can play in numerous roles. He is more than capable of sitting in front of the defence, effective as a box-to-box 6 or 8, or even as an attacking midfielder, a 10.
With the Gers set to welcome back Ryan Jack, and still boasting John Lundstram and Glen Kamara – he is not needed to anchor the midfield. Joe Aribo, Scott Arfield, Lundstram and others can partner Kamara or Jack.
Where he is needed, without a doubt, is the 10 role – the position he is excelling in for Wales. Ianis Hagi has been ruled out for the rest of the season and the signings of Ramsey and Amad Diallo replace that.
