Bruma (achilles) is back available for Wednesday's Champions League clash against Juventus but will begin the game on the bench, coach Jose Mourinho said in the press conference.

Bruma has fully recovered from his ruptured Achilles and has been back in team training since last week, building his fitness back with the Benfiquistas. The forward will be an option for Wednesday's Champions League clash against Juventus but will begin the game on the bench. Depending on how the match unfolds against the Old Lady, Bruma could see some minutes later in the game to create some danger in the frontline.
