Gianluigi Buffon was warned ahead of a potential move to PSG by current team-mate Blaise Matuidi during the week, and now it seems as though the Ligue 1 champions themselves are moving a bit cautiously. PSG are prepared to back away from signing the legendary goalkeeper – if his upcoming UEFA ban is too heavy.
The regulation one-game ban will continue to linger over Buffon, provided he remains active and does not retire, but could also be increased depending on what Oliver reported about the incident during UEFA’s investigation.
If found guilty of violent conduct, it’s highly probable that the Italian’s ban will increase by a few games. It seems as though Buffon would be signed for his big-game experience and Champions League pedigree.
