Italian champions continue their preparation for the season by traveling through Asia and Australia.

The head coach of Juventus, Massimiliano Allegri, registered a total of 28 players for the tour.

Notable absences from the list include defender Mauricio Isla and Frederik Sorensen, as well as the injured newcomer Alvaro Morata.

However, last Saturday, Juventus added defender Romulo to the squad on a loan basis.
