Ghana international Kwadwo Asamoah was not named in the Juventus squad which beat FC Porto 1-0 on Tuesday night to reach the quarter-final of the UEFA Champions League.

Asamoah had played the entire duration in last Friday's 2-1 win over AC Milan in the Serie A and was expected to play in the return leg.

He was named in Max Allegri's 22-man squad for the tie but could not make the bench.

Asamoah is yet to play his first Champions League match this season after being registered in the second half of the season.
