Italian champions Juventus have secured the services of Wales midfielder Aaron Ramsey, who signed a four-year deal with the club in February 2019.
With over 350 appearances in 11 seasons at Premier League club Arsenal, Ramsey left the Gunners to join the Turin-based side, citing it as the right club for him.
"When I heard that Juventus were interested in me, I thought it would be a dream to come here, as well as a great challenge. You can’t turn down this opportunity. This is the right club for me. I hope to be a part of the history," Ramsey told reporters at his unveiling on Monday.
Welsh football legend John Charles, who played for Juventus from 1957 to 1962, is a player Ramsey looks up to and hopes to emulate.
"He (Charles) is an absolute legend over here and for Welsh football. He’s definitely someone I can look up to and hopefully follow in his footsteps," Ramsey said.
