Kaio Jorge out of Juventus Champions League squad

Juventus have named their squad for the Champions League group phase, leaving out Kaio Jorge and Luca Pellegrini.

The Bianconeri are up against Chelsea, Zenit St Petersburg and Malmo, beginning in Sweden on September 14.

Max Allegri has a list of 23 players available and one of the reasons why Moise Kean was brought back from Everton is his status as one of their youth products.

Of the senior players, Kaio Jorge and Luca Pellegrini have had to be cut.

The Brazilian teenage striker was signed from Santos for €1.5m plus bonuses.

Juventus squad for Champions League:

Perin, Pinsoglio, Szczesny; Bonucci, Chiellini, Cuadrado, Danilo, De Ligt, De Sciglio, Alex Sandro, Rugani; Bentancur, Locatelli, McKennie, Rabiot, Arthur, Ramsey; Bernardeschi, Chiesa, Dybala, Kean, Kulusevski, Morata
