Cristiano Ronaldo returns to Juventus squad for Atletico Madrid meeting

After missing the weekend win away to Atalanta in Serie A, Cristiano Ronaldo is back in the Juventus squad to face Atletico Madrid.

Cristiano Ronaldo will be in action for Juventus against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday.

Cristiano Ronaldo has been named in the Juventus squad for Tuesday's Champions League home game against Atletico Madrid.

Ronaldo was a doubt for the Group D clash in Turin after missing Juve's win away to Atalanta in Serie A at the weekend. But the Portugal superstar has been included in an initial 20-man squad, with Matthijs de Ligt and Federico Bernardeschi also making the list after head coach Maurizio Sarri suggested they needed to be evaluated for the game.

Ronaldo and Sarri have both denied there is a problem in their relationship after the attacker was substituted two league games running prior to the international break when Juve was chasing a winning goal.

Juve is top of Group D, three points clear of Atletico, and has already secured its place in the next round.
