Chris Coleman has talked up Wales and Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey by claiming he could walk into any team in world football.
The 25-year-old will return for Wales in their World Cup qualifier against Serbia on Saturday, playing his first game for his country since their Euro 2016 quarter-final win over Belgium.
Gareth Bale may be the headline act in Coleman s side, but the manager insists Ramsey has the ability to play for any club he wants.
Because I ve seen him up close, in a tournament, I ve seen the level he s at, he could play for anybody, said Coleman.
There s not a team on the planet he couldn t play for when he s at his best.
That s not a biased opinion because I m a Welshman and we all love Rambo I m looking at it clinically.
Playing in a tournament against the top teams, he was head and shoulders above. He could play for anyone.
Ramsey has been a big miss for Wales during his absence through a hamstring injury as his side slipped two points behind Group D leaders Serbia.
We were without him for the first three games and it was a blow for us that it would be a blow for anyone, Coleman continued.
It was disappointing and frustrating. You have to say, without Aaron Ramsey, take him out of any team and it s a loss. So it s nice to have him back.
He s not played too much football for Arsenal, of course, but he s going to start the game as we sit here now.
However long he ll last physically we don t know, but we do know he s generally probably one of the fittest players playing football.
Wales face Serbia for the first time since playing them twice in 2014 World Cup qualifying, where they were thrashed 6-1 away and 3-0 at home.
