Juventus will be able to call on Merih Demiral in China after the defender was granted a visa.

Demiral was initially due to return to Turin after Juve’s International Champions Cup opener against Tottenham Hotspur in Singapore on Saturday, having been denied entry into China.

However, the Bianconeri tweeted on the morning of their clash with Spurs that he would be travelling with the squad to face Inter in Nanjing on Wednesday.
