‘Disappointed’ Ramsey likely to return to Juventus after penalty miss with Rangers

Rangers boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst admits Aaron Ramsey was ‘very down’ after missing a decisive penalty kick in the Europa League Final last night and according to Italian media, the Welshman is likely to return to Juventus in the summer.

Ramsey was the only one to miss a penalty kick during the shootout in the Europa League Final between Rangers and Eintracht Frankfurt last night.

He had joined the Scottish giants on loan from Juventus in January. Rangers don’t have an option to make his move permanent, so the 31-year-old is likely to return to Turin in June.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Ramsey will ‘almost surely’ make his Allianz Stadium comeback in the summer, but Juventus will be looking for other suitors as Max Allegri has no plans for him at the club.

Ramsey only managed five appearances in the first part of the season under the Tuscan tactician before joining Rangers on a temporary deal.

“He is very down, it’s never nice to lose. Everyone is hurt and disappointed. It’s normal after the game, of course, he was disappointed, but he took responsibility to take the penalty,” Rangers boss van Bronckhorst said last night.

“You can make it or miss it. Unfortunately for us, he didn’t make it, but you want to have players taking penalties who are ready and comfortable.”
