Kwadwo Asamoah named in Juventus team to face Barcelona

The Ghana international might be handed a starting role when Juventus do battle with Barcelona on Tuesday in the UEFA Champions League.

This will be a rematch of the 2016-17 UEFA Champions League which Juventus trounced the Catalonians 3-0 on aggregate to progress to the final.

Kwadwo Asamoah who wanted a move away from Turin in the summer due to limited playing time was handed a place in the Juventus team that defeated Chievo 3-0 in the Serie A to give him the assurance that he is part of the scheme of things of coach Maximiliano Allegri.
