42-year old Juventus shot-stopper Gianluigi Buffon wants to honor the dreams of his 7-year old self and keep playing as long as his physicality allows him.
Buffon joined PSG in 2018 before returning back to the club where he has almost spend two decades. But the 2006 World Cup winner feels he can still contribute to football.
“The return to Juve was natural, in the end. I had a wonderful year in Paris and I must say that I needed it to detoxify myself,” Buffon said, as Football Italia reports.
“I don’t know what will happen next year. It is true that two years ago I practically retired and then what happened, happened.
“Why am I not retiring? Because I feel fine, and I want to respect the dreams I had when I was a small boy. At that age, I would’ve been thrilled had they told me that I would become a Serie C goalkeeper.”
