Veteran goalkeeper, Gianluigi Buffon, has offered his appreciation to Juventus for the “splendid gift” of being able to play with Cristiano Ronaldo following the goalkeeper’s return to the club.
Buffon left the Seria A champions last year, spending a season at Paris Saint-Germain, before sealing a return to his beloved club where he spent 17 trophy-laden years.
Upon signing a contract that will expire in 2020, he said he’s particularly excited about the chance to call Ronaldo his team-mate.
“It’s beautiful,” he told reporters when asked about playing with the former Real Madrid star.
“At the end of my career I was able to play with Neymar and [Kylian] Mbappe thanks to Paris Saint-Germain, now it will happen with Cristiano Ronaldo thanks to Juventus.
“I think that for players with my experience and with my history, to be able to end the career in such a way is a splendid gift.”
