Trezeguet returns to first team training

Rome - Former France striker David Trezeguet started training with his team-mates again on Monday for the first time since having knee surgery in September, the club said on its website.

The 31-year-old has played only six minutes this season in Juve's opening home match against Udinese on September 14. Nine days later he was operated on.

According to Juve he will come into first team contention at the end of the month.

Trezeguet - who has fallen out of favour with France coach Raymond Domenech - has been an unqualified success at Juventus since joining the club in 2000, scoring 130 goals in 219 league matches.

He also scored the golden goal winner for France against Italy in the Euro 2000 final.

In only their second season back in the top flight following their demotion in 2006 for match-fixing, Juve currently sit second in Serie A, just four points behind champions Inter Milan.
