Monaco captain Toulalan back to squad for Juventus game

Xinhua, April 22, 2015 Adjust font size:

Monaco captain Jeremy Toulalan has been included in the squad to face Juventus at home in Wednesday's Champions League quarterfinal second leg.

The 31-year-old, who just extended his contract to June 2017 with the principle club over ten days ago, missed the first leg last Tuesday, a 1-0 Juve victory in Turin, due to a thigh problem.

He was named in Leonardo Jardim's roster but it remains to be seen if the French midfielder will start.

Geoffrey Kondogbia and Nabil Dirar will also make Monaco squad though both have ankle problems, while Lacina Traore is unavailable due to a bruised tibia.

Following is the Monaco squad for Juventus game:

Goalkeepers: Maarten Stekelenburg, Danijel Subasic

Defenders: Aymen Abdennour, Ricardo Carvalho, Elderson Uwa Echiejile, Fabinho, Layvin Kurzawa, Andrea Raggi, Wallace

Midfielders: Yannick Carrasco, Nabil Dirar, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Joao Moutinho, Bernardo Silva, Toulalan

Forwards: Berbatov, Valere Germain, Anthony Martial, Carvalho Matheus Endite
