Ronaldo ‘ready to return’ for Juventus against Udinese

Cristiano Ronaldo is “ready to return” for Juventus’ Serie A clash with Udinese on Saturday, coach Massimiliano Allegri has said.

The Portuguese forward missed Juventus’ 3-0 Champions League win over Young Boys with Paulo Dybala netting a hat-trick in Ronaldo’s absence.

“I’ve known Cristiano for three months now and for over 15 years of his career he has shown to be a great professional both on and off the pitch. He is ready to return to action tomorrow,” Allegri told reporters.
