Szczesny reveals how he plans to ‘take care’ of Ramsey

Wojciech Szczesny has revealed how he plans to ‘take care’ of former Arsenal teammate Aaron Ramsey at Juventus.

Szczesny and Ramsey were teammates at Arsenal before the goalkeeper moved to Italy in 2017, and the pair will be reunited at Juve next season.

“He came here for treatment, but here we have the best physiotherapists in the world,” the goalkeeper told Gazzetta dello Sport.

“I took him out for dinner one evening, he’ll be a great player for us. He’s a midfielder with a lot of quality, he’s very good positionally, he scores lots of goals and provides lots of assists.

“When he’s fit, he’s one of the best and he’ll give us a big hand in achieving our objectives.

“Whether he plays as a midfielder or No 10 depends on the new Coach. For me he can also play at right-back, since he defends very well.

“Ramsey asked me what happened with Allegri, although In any case he would’ve started working with a new Coach.

“We talked to each other a couple of times before he signed for Juventus. He asked me for some advice.

“I told him: ‘It’s easy. If Juve call you, you can only say ‘yes’.’ That’s how it went and it means Aaron listens to me.

“He’s had five months to prepare and he’s already picked up a little bit. When I took him to dinner, he said more than just a ‘hello’.

“He partly understood me and that’s a good basis to work from. I’ll take care of the rest to give him a hand.”
