Juventus coach Sarri ponders resting Ronaldo for Sampdoria

Juventus coach Maurizio Sarri is happy with Cristiano Ronaldo's fitness ahead of their meeting with Sampdoria.

Ronaldo has played in four successive matches for Juve.

Sarri said, “Let's see, I still have to decide (if Ronaldo plays). In general, those up front seem fine. Douglas Costa and [Aaron] Ramsey are also returning.

“[For Adrien Rabiot] it seems like he still needs more time to play. If he has completely recovered, he can safely enter the pitch.

“We are asking for a lot of sacrifices from [Blaise] Matuidi, maybe he will just do a little bit this time."
