G. Buffon: my future will become clear soon

"Juventus" goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon spoke about his future plans. The legendary player, who will soon celebrate his 40th birthday, has not yet decided about the end of his career. "I will soon talk to club president Andrea Agnelli and we will discuss it. I don't want to be a burden to 'Juventus' and my teammates, so together we will have to make the best decision," Buffon said. "Would I be willing to share my place in the starting eleven with Wojciech Szczesny? I always try to give others a chance to show themselves, and the Pole is an excellent goalkeeper. If we triumph in 'Serie A' this season, it will also be largely thanks to Szczesny. Would I leave for another club if I didn't receive an offer? No, it's 'Juventus' or nothing," the veteran affirmed. According to G. Buffon, he does not want to become a coach in the future. "What will I do after retiring? I haven't thought about it yet. A few days ago I asked coach Marcelo Lippi for advice and he mentioned that I would spend a year without football and look at everything from a distance. Coaching? Even if it were to happen, I wouldn't manage a club."
