Chiellini aims for Viola date
Tuesday 20 January, 2009

Juventus defender Giorgio Chiellini is adamant he will be fit to face Fiorentina this weekend.

The Italian international missed the Old Lady's games against Siena and Lazio with a muscular problem in his leg.

There have been suggestions that Chiellini will miss out on facing his former club in Week 20, but the Pisa native is determined to be there.

“I had a problem with one of the flexors in my left leg,” Chiellini assured Tuttosport.

“It seemed like nothing at first, but when I tried to push through it I began to feel pain.

“I didn't want to risk it and I still haven't recovered fully. But I will get better and I will be there for the Fiorentina game.”

Youth system player Lorenzo Ariaudo has filled in for Chiellini and is ready to play understudy again should the 24-year-old fail a fitness test.
