Claudio Marchisio Sees An In-Form Juventus Side

The midfielder says his condition is getting better, and cannot wait to play in an in-form Bianconeri outfit...

Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio has spoken about how he sees his team-mates, as they are coming back from international duty over the next week.

The Bianconeri currently sit in second place, and received a morale boost before entering the break, as they were able to close the gap to leaders Inter by two points.

"I see an in-form Juventus side," the 23-year-old said to Corriere Dello Sport. "We now await the re-entry of our national team players to be able to compete in the domestic and Champions League."

The Italian international - should he be selected by coach Ciro Ferrara - will make his first appearance since undergoing an operation to fix his damaged meniscus in his right knee.

"I am now better, and will continue to work with the trainers to arrive at peak fitness.

"My aim is to make an appearance against Udinese," Marchisio summed up.
