Gianluigi Buffon set to leave for PSG

Gianluigi Buffon’s agent has suggested that the legendary goalkeeper is on his way to Paris Saint-Germain after bringing an end to his time at Juventus.

Last weekend’s 2-1 win over Hellas Verona presented Buffon with one last chance to say farewell to Bianconeri supporters, as he brought down the curtain on his 17-year spell in Turin.

Rather than retire, however, the 40-year-old plans to continue playing and has already been linked with the likes of Liverpool, Manchester United and PSG.

The latter of those clubs appears to be the most likely destination for Buffon, as agent Silvano Martina has confirmed that there is interest.

“We would be happy if Gigi came to Paris next season,” he told Le Parisien.

PSG’s current first-choice keeper, France international Alphonse Areola, is expected to head to Napoli if Buffon arrives.
