Claudio Marchisio says he is “hoping to be available” for Juventus after the international break following a “difficult” spell out.

Marchisio has been sidelined since April with knee ligament damage, forcing him to miss Italy’s Euro 2016 campaign, but the midfielder is now back on the mend.

“I’m very well, it’s been more than two weeks that I’ve trained with the team,” he told Calciomercato.

“I’m very well, it’s been more than two weeks that I’ve trained with the team,” he told Calciomercato.

“After the break, I hope to be available. In these six months, there have been some difficult times.

“Watching the European Championship from home wasn’t easy, but I was proud of my teammates.

“Finally these long months have passed. Many champions arrived at Juve over the summer, no-one has struck me in particular.

“The newcomers have experience and are doing well. We’ve started better this season than last and we recovered the small misstep from the first matchday of the Champions League.”
