After almost a month spent on the sidelines, Juventus‘ Giorgio Chiellini is set to return to action, and has promised fans a performance on the level of Superhero proportions.
The 31-year-old has resumed training after a lengthy injury and has now taken to social media to reassure fans of his fitness.
“Soon I will return to defend my team just as Batman defends his Gotham City!,” wrote Chiellini, on his official Twitter account.
Tra poco tornerò a difendere la mia squadra come Batman difende la sua Gotham City! #iostoconbatman #ChiVincerà pic.twitter.com/AVuFRRuBon

Whilst he may not don a cape and cowl every week, the defender has been known to leave opponents quaking in their boots due to his his towering figure and physical presence; He may well just be the hero Juve need to see their way to a fifth successive Serie A title.
Expected to return to Massimiliano Allegri’s starting line-up at home to Empoli after domestic play resumes next week, Chiellini will look to pick up where he left off and continue his impressive form at the back for the Bianconeri.
