Juventus coach Max Allegri says Adrien Rabiot will start against Sampdoria on Monday night.

Rabiot saw a move to Manchester United fall through last week.

“I was looking forward to playing. Games create adrenaline, there will be the Champions League. The fun part starts now," Allegri said at a press conference.

“I don't like to train for the whole week. It's ok, but then we have to play. The fun part of football is Saturday and Sunday because we play."

He continued: “Rabiot plays tomorrow.

“Of course, players who could leave have chances in the market, but Rabiot had an excellent season last term. He was suspended last week, so he didn't play. We have two new signings tomorrow, Rabiot and Kean, who were suspended against Sassuolo."
