Gianluigi Buffon To Leave Paris St-Germain

By Daily Sports on June 6, 2019

Goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon will leave Paris St-Germain when his contract expires at the end of the month.

The Italy legend, 41, joined on a free transfer in July 2018, making 25 appearances in all competitions for the club as they won the Ligue 1 title.

The nine-time Serie A winner previously played for Juventus, making 656 appearances in a 17-year stay in Turin.

“I leave happy to have enjoyed this experience which has undoubtedly helped me to grow,” Buffon said.

“Today my adventure outside Italy comes to an end.

“Ernest Hemingway wrote that there are only two places in the world where people can live happily: at home and in Paris. Today onwards, this will also apply to me: Paris, in some way, will always remain my home... Allez Paris!”

Buffon, Italy’s most capped player with 176 appearances, retired from the national team after they failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup. (BBC)
