Aaron Ramsey has been backed to shine alongside Cristiano Ronaldo when he swaps Arsenal for Juventus.

The midfielder is expected to move to the Serie A giants on a free transfer in the summer as the Gunners lose another top talent.

Ramsey will become part of a select group of British footballers to ply their trade abroad and Ian Rush, who played for the Bianconeri for one season, has backed him to succeed.

"I think [Juventus] is a fantastic move for him," Rush told ESPN FC. "When I went there it was an industrial city but it's come on a million times better since I was there.

"I think Juventus are an amazing club. They've still got connections with the Agnelli family, Andrea Agnelli is the president there and Gianni Agnelli was the owner when I was there. So they are very passionate about it.

"I think he'd do really well, you've got Ronaldo there to play with and all that, so that's something special. But I think Aaron will be something special for Juventus and I'm sure he'll enjoy it."
