Gianluigi Buffon has already earned the status of a legend both in Turin's Juventus, in the Italian national team, and all over the world. Although the goalkeeper may end his career after this season, he is not ready to completely forget about football.
The Italian stated that if Juventus or the Italian national team need help, he will be ready to assist even at the age of 80.
"I just don't know how to answer these retirement questions. Will I stop? Will I not stop? I feel like a soldier serving his club and country. The bigger picture has always been more important to me than my own well-being. That's how I look at my work.
There's a good chance I'll stop, but I will always be of service to Juventus and the Italian national team. Even when I'm 80 years old. If there's no goalkeeper at that time, they should give me a call, I'll train hard and help them," G. Buffon said.
"I will regret for the rest of my life that Italy didn't make it to the World Cup. We took away the joy of children, the fast heartbeat from our country's game at such a high-level tournament," the goalkeeper did not hide his disappointment.
