There are encouraging signs over the fitness of Giorgio Chiellini and Emre Can ahead of Juve’s second-leg clash with Ajax.

Both players missed the first-leg of Juve’s Champions League quarter-final against Ajax in Amsterdam which ended in a 1-1 draw.

Updates from Juventus.com, Sky Sport Italia and Goal.com’s Romeo Agresti suggest that Chiellini and Can are progressing well and could make the squad for the return leg.

Douglas Costa picked up a calf injury and is not expected to be back in time for the game while Daniele Rugani is expected to be fit for the match.

Mattia Perin suffered a right shoulder injury in training today and won’t make the squad for Ajax.
