Ghana star Thomas Partey has been declared fit to feature in Atletico Madrid's Champions League clash with Juventus on Wednesday night.

The 26-year-old has been included in the Spanish club's squad for the match after missing out on the La Liga defeat at Real Sociedad this past weekend. He didn't travel with the team to Anoeta due to discomfort.

Partey will be hoping to start tonight at the Wanda Metropolitano as Atleti aim to get their campaign off to a flyer.

Last season, Partey played a key role as Atleti beat Juventus 2-0 in the first leg of their Round of 16 clash. However, Partey missed the return leg due to suspension and his absence proved vital as Juventus staged a remarkable comeback to progress.
