Juve may drop Ramsey from Champions League squad

Oct 30, 2019

Aaron Ramsey may be withdrawn from Juventus's Champions League squad.

According to British reports, this is because of Ramsey's continued injury problems, which has limited him to just 210 minutes of football this season. 

It's believed that the Welshman will be replaced by former Liverpool midfielder Emre Can. 

Juve will be able to make changes to their 22-man Champions League squad in February, if they reach the knockout rounds.
