Cristiano Ronaldo can gear up for his first Champions League campaign as a Juventus player following his inclusion in Massimiliano Allegri’s group-stage squad.
Leonardo Spinazzola is the only first-team member excluded from the 23-man selection as he continues to recover from a long-term knee injury.

Five-time winner Ronaldo brings significant Champions League know-how to a club seeking its first European trophy since 1996.
The 33-year-old is the competition’s all-time leading scorer, although he is yet to open his Juve account.
He will meet former club Manchester United, La Liga side Valencia and Swiss outfit Young Boys in a tricky Group H.

Goalkeepers: Mattia Perin, Carlo Pinsoglio, Wojciech Szczesny
