Cristiano Ronaldo has been named in Zinedine Zidane's squad for Real Madrid's Champions League second-leg match against Napoli in the San Paolo on Tuesday.

Ronaldo missed last Saturday's 4-1 LaLiga win at Eibar due to what the club described as "muscular problems".

His return was expected after he took part in a recovery training session with the squad on Sunday and he has now been named in the 22-man party for the trip to Naples.
