Khedira nears Juventus return

Juventus have received a boost ahead of their
Champions League clash with Sevilla as Sami Khedira
has returned to training.

Juventus could welcome Sami Khedira back into the first team
as the Germany international nears a full recovery following two
months out with a thigh tear.

The Scudetto holders have endured a disappointing start to the
new campaign, with Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Napoli leaving
them languishing in 14th place in the Serie A standings.

A 2-1 win over Manchester City on matchday one of the
Champions League provided a rare highlight, and they could
have Khedira available for Wednesday's Group D meeting with
Sevilla at Juventus Stadium.

The midfielder picked up the injury during a pre-season friendly
with Marseille on August 1 and is yet to make a competitive
appearance for the Turin giants.

On Sunday, Khedira returned to training alongside team-mates
that did not travel for the meeting with Napoli.
