Juventus players, including star striker Cristiano Ronaldo, took part in a training session at King Abdullah Sports City on Tuesday before the Supercoppa Italiana final against Serie A rivals AC Milan.

Ronaldo signed autographs and posed with fans at a meet-and-greet session ahead of Wednesday's match in Jeddah.

The Portuguese forward made an incredible start to life in Turin since switching from Real Madrid in a €100 million (Dh418m) deal last summer, netting 15 goals in 25 matches in all competitions.

Ronaldo sat out Juve's latest match – a 2-0 won over Bologna on Saturday that clinched a place in the quarter-finals of the Coppa Italia.

Juve won the league-and-cup double last season, beating Milan in the Coppa Italia final 4-0 in May.

Wednesday's match takes place at King Abdullah Sports City with a 9.30pm UAE kick off.
