Buffon edging closer to signing for Ligue 1 champions

Gianluigi Buffon seems to be still going strong even at his current age as latest rumors suggest that the 40-year-old is close to agreeing a 2-year contract with Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain.

Buffon left Juventus after 17 years of service for the Serie A giants and when all thought he was hanging up his boots, it seems like he’s got different plans in mind.

PSG, as reported by ‘Sky Sports’ have offered the Italian a chance to be their goalkeeper.

PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi has recently praised Buffon in an interview saying: “Buffon is a fantastic goalkeeper, he’s very charismatic and is a true gentleman. I’m sure all the clubs want him.”

Nothing is confirmed yet, but any deal between the player and team might not be too far away from being agreed.
