Buffon one step away from Juventus return
Posted Wednesday, June 26, 2019 by Marca.com
Gianluigi Buffon is edging ever closer to completing his return to Juventus this summer, having left Paris Saint-Germain just one year after joining from Italy's Old Lady.
It's been known that Buffon's desire is to remain at the top of European football and Juve are thought to be opening their arms as they look to welcome the 41-year-old back to the club.
According to Sky Sport Italia, negotiations between the two parties are at an advanced stage and he will return on a one-year contract.
In Turin, he's expected to battle with Wojciech Szczesny for the No.1 shirt, but he's happy to play the role of second-choice goalkeeper at his advanced age.
Buffon had been linked with Porto with Iker Casillas' future unknown, but Casillas himself tweeted a cryptic message on Tuesday evening about Juventus' transfer operations, describing their dealings as being Houdini-like.
