Buffon: I'm not retiring because I still feel good

Gianluigi Buffon has insisted that he has no plans to retire just yet.

The 42-year-old goalkeeper has been second choice behind Wojciech Szczesny this season at Juventus.

"I'm not stopping playing because I still feel good, but also out of respect for the dreams I had when I was a kit," Buffon told Juventus' official website.

"At that moment, I'd never have imagined how far I've got."

Buffon, like the rest of Italy, is currently in self-isolation in order to stop the spread of coronavirus in the country.

"For those that live in an apartment in the city, it's difficult," he said.

"But we have to respect others and follow the indications they are giving us.

"This experience will bring us even closer together."I don't feel bad being at home [all the time], I had to adapt after the first two or three days.

"I feel fine now. I'm enjoying cooking. I know when to do it when needed.

"My special recipe is pasta with tomato sauce and tuna. I've been perfecting it for 25 years."
