Massimiliano Allegri: 'Sami Khedira will play against Sevilla'

Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri has revealed that fit-again Sami Khedira will play a part in Wednesday's Champions League game against Sevilla.

The German international joined Juve from Real Madrid in the summer, but a thigh injury has thus far prevented him from making his debut for the Italian side.

Allegri, however, has said that the 28-year-old will feature for the Old Lady in Turin after returning to fitness.

"Khedira hasn't played for a while, but he will play [against Sevilla] and he is ready. He's a player of international level. I don't know how long he can play, but he will certainly feature," Allegri told reporters.

Juventus opened their Champions League Group D campaign with a 2-1 win at Manchester City earlier this month.
