Juventus vs AC Milan: Sarri issues disturbing news concerning Ronaldo
Maurizio Sarri has revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo may not play a part during Juventus clash against AC Milan with a knee problem.
Ronaldo was substituted off with eight minutes of normal time remaining in Wednesday’s Champions League meeting with Lokomotiv Moscow, as Gonzalo Higuain’s last-gasp effort secured a 2-1 win.

Juve return to Serie A action against struggling Milan, who sit 12th, with new coach Stefano Pioli having managed just one win from four matches in charge.
Asked for an update on Ronaldo’s fitness on Saturday, Sarri revealed he is still uncertain if the former Real Madrid star – who has six goals in all competitions this season – will be able to play.

“How is Ronaldo? I still don’t know, because yesterday he was with the physiotherapists and we will see today and tomorrow in the last training session,” Sarri told a news conference.
“Let’s see what he can do. He feels a little pain in his knee but it is nothing serious.”
