Zebina ready for Juventus comeback in derby

Juventus defender Jonathan Zebina has declared himself fit for this weekend's derby against Torino.

Zebina has recovered from an Achilles injury and told the Juve website: "I feel good now and I am ready to be selected.

"I won't be back for the Coppa Italia game against Napoli tomorrow, but I'm hoping to be ready for the next game.

"I want to play a few minutes in the derby, which would be a reward after all the hard graft of the last few months.

"For me playing against the Primavera was like playing in the World Cup Final - I felt emotions I haven't had for a long time."
