Midfielder Ramsey, 30, left the Gunners on a free transfer in 2019 to join the Italian giants once his contract expired.
Despite making around £400,000-a-week in Turin, the ex-Cardiff ace continues to be linked with a move away after failing to hit top form in Italy.
So far this season he has played more minutes for Wales than Juventus - leading to both Saudi Arabia-backed Newcastle United and Everton being linked with him.
However, his former Arsenal team-mate Walcott told that he can see Ramsey donning the colours of the Gunners once again amid those transfer rumours.
The now Southampton forward said: “I’ll find out, give him a call and pester him (on if he’s returning to the Premier League).
“Do you know what, it would be lovely, it would be fantastic if he came back to the Premier League. I feel like he would want to.

“Some part of me in my head thinks that he would love to come back to Arsenal.
“It does. Something about that would sort of tick a box.”
Walcott added: “It’s one of those things, he’s at Juventus and he played very well for Wales last night and it’s good to see.
“A lot of people have been on his back in Italy, which I haven’t seen a lot or enough of it to comment on that.
“But he’s a leader. He’s a workhorse. Still playing for his country and has all these caps.”
Ramsey, who won the FA Cup three times at the Emirates, helped Wales to seal a World Cup play-off spot yesterday with a 1-1 draw against Belgium.
