Ronaldo in Juventus squad to face Ajax but Chiellini absent

Juventus have received mix news on the injury front with Cristiano Ronaldo available and in the squad for their Champions League meeting with Ajax but Giorgio Chiellini is forced to miss out.

There were concerns that the Portugal international would not be able to shake off a thigh injury in time to feature in Wednesday's showdown with the Dutch side.

He did, however, take part in training with the rest of the squad on Tuesday and was subsequently part of the travelling party heading to Amsterdam.

There is less positive news over the fitness of captain Giorgio Chiellini, meanwhile.
