Allegri delighted as Chiesa takes part in Juventus training

Federico Chiesa has joined Juventus training this week for the first time this season.

The attacker has been missing since suffering a knee injury in January.

Chiesa partially trained with the group yesterday and today and could be back in action by the end of the month.

“I am happy with Federico, he is back after nine months and it's a relief," Juve coach Max Allegri said at yesterday's Champions League presser.

“Surely, it's hard to train alone. We'll assess him day by day. We'll organise a friendly to test him before his definitive return to the squad."
