Juventus, Howedes: "I am ready. I am sorry for Italy's exit"

Benedikt Howedes spoke to Sky Sport about his availability to return for Juventus: "I am happy to be able to return. I started with an injury, but I am now ready. I wasn't easy to arrive to a new team and then immediately get injured, but I stayed positive. My family and friends came to see me and my teammates were close by to talk to me. We want to win both games against Sampdoria and Barcelona. We are Juventus and we must not hid. It is not an easy moment for Buffon, Barzagli and Chiellini and the other members of the Azzurri. We are all disillusioned, but they are professionals and will be able to recover from this situation."
