Juventus rival Chelsea, Manchester United in Goncalo Ramos race

Goncalo Ramos has been linked with a summer move away from PSG, with several European bigwigs interested in him.

Goncalo Ramos has struggled for regular playing time at Paris Saint-Germain, and he needs to move on to play more often. The Portuguese international is entering the peak years of his career, and sitting on the bench at a big club will not benefit him. It remains to be seen whether Juventus can secure his signature at the end of the season.

Dusan Vlahovic will be a free agent in the summer, and they need to replace him. Signing the PSG striker could be a wise decision. The 24-year-old is hungry for regular opportunities, and his determination to succeed will be an added bonus. Ramos has the technical attributes to succeed in Italian football, and he could transform Juventus in the attack.

Goncalo Ramos stats compared to Liam Delap and Joshua Zirkzee (league)

  • Goals & Assists: 7 vs 1, 3
  • Minutes played: 1044 vs 796, 523
  • Shots on target percentage: 45.8 vs 35.5, 33.3

Chelsea and Manchester United could use Ramos

As per a report by Italian outlet Calciomercato, Chelsea and Manchester United are also interested in the player. It is no secret that Chelsea need another quality striker. Liam Delap has scored just once in the Premier League this season, and they need an upgrade on him.

Ramos will be determined to play regularly at a high level, and the opportunity to join Chelsea will be hard to turn down for him. The Portuguese international could form a solid partnership with Joao Pedro next season.

As for Manchester United, they need to find an upgrade on Joshua Zirkzee. The Netherlands international has struggled for regular opportunities, and he is clearly not a favoured option for the manager. It would be ideal for Michael Carrick to sanction the Dutchman’s exit in the summer and bring in a quality replacement.

Ramos has shown his quality in France and for his country. He has the quality to thrive in the Premier League, and he could prove to be an upgrade on the Dutch attacker. Given that he is not a key player for PSG, he might be available at a reasonable price in the summer. It remains to be seen which of the three clubs can get the deal done.
