Khedira has been struggling with a thigh injury, but is aiming to be fit to face the Biancocelesti on Friday.

However, Tuttomercatoweb reports that the German international is still not 100 per cent fit, and will face a fitness test at Vinovo tomorrow.

If Khedira is not ready to play, Coach Allegri would only have Claudio Marchisio, Stefano Sturaro and Simone Padoin at his disposal in midfield.
