Claudio Marchisio and Stefano Sturaro have returned to training while Paul Pogba is due back in seven days.
The two midfielders have been out due to muscular injuries but the pair returned to full training this week and even managed to play in an hour-long friendly against local team Aygreville.
Pogba, meanwhile, is recovering after spraining his ankle while on international duty with France.
“Paul Pogba came back to Vinovo yesterday evening, having suffered a sprain to his right ankle,” reads an official statement on Juve’s website.
“The player was visited by the Juventus medical staff, who confirmed the diagnosis of their French colleagues.
“The return to sporting activities will be possible in around seven days.”
Mario Mandzukic is another who returned early from international duty, having been surprisingly called up to the Croatian national squad, despite tearing a muscle.
The striker is back in Turin and will continue his rehabilitation with the Juve medical team.

God knows how many more players will get injured in these bloody stupid international matches.
i know right. thank god morata didnt get a fracture.
When we were FINALLY getting them back to fitness, others drop out in meaningless games, at least for us
The France game is meaningless for all. France is already qualified for the euro as hosts, so they just play friendlies during international breaks. I guess Pogba and the other stars need to get used to eachother in these matches, but they shouldn’t risk any injuries in friendlies.
I think he got injured in a training session or am I wrong?
No clue. I’m not following the French team.
Me neither but read it xp
