"The legend of Juventus, Gianluigi Buffon, more and more often thinks about what he will do after finishing his professional career.
Some football fans hope that he will become a coach and lead a Serie A club to victories while still on the sidelines.
However, fans' dreams are not meant to come true.
"I have been living in the world of football for 32 years. Playing on the field is the most beautiful part of this sport. It gives emotions and meaning to life.
Therefore, I would not want to become a club coach one day. However, I do not rule out the possibility of coaching a national team - there you can also draw emotions, but there is still a lot of time for other things," Buffon said.
The veteran insists that the position of the Italian national team's goalkeeper will not weaken and that "once I retire" - the "Milan" representative Gianluigi Donnarumma is improving every day.
"He is very intelligent and shows incredible talent. In the hands of a 17-year-old, all the tools to become part of history. Let's wait 20 years and we will be able to draw the right conclusions," Buffon said.
