Juventus defender Chiellini out of Champions League final

Juventus defender Giorgio Chiellini is out of the Champions League final.

The defender withdrew from training yesterday, after feeling some discomfort in his calf. "Giorgio Chiellini was subjected to tests following calf discomfort in yesterday's session," the club announced in a statement.

"The tests showed a first-degree lesion of the soleus muscle in his left leg, so the defender will not be available for the match against Barcelona."
