Last year, after 18 successful seasons at Juventus, Buffon retired from Turin to move to PSG. However, he did not achieve any significant success with the team at Parc des Princes and left Paris after only 1 season.
Gigi did not play regularly in France and he also made a serious mistake in the match where PSG was came back by Man United in the 1/8 round of the Champions League.
Returning to his hometown to the welcome of thousands of fans, Buffon will play as Juventus' number 2 goalkeeper from next season. This is a move that shows how much Ronaldo's appeal is as the stars are eager to arrive at the Allianz Stadium at the moment to achieve the UEFA Champions League ambition.
However, when he left PSG, Buffon did not have just one choice: to return to Juventus. He has received two very surprising offers from England, which are Man United and Man City.
As for Man City, it was Coach Pep Guardiola who sent the message to hope to work with the 41-year-old goalkeeper. If he plays in England next year, Buffon will receive double his current salary with Juve, about 1.35 million pounds/year.
Buffon will be captivated by the Premier League title when they join Manchester. However, he realized that if he joined these clubs, the number 2 goalkeeper position would definitely belong to him. It is not known, Gigi fell into the same prospect as with PSG last season.
More seriously, Buffon has finally returned to Italy, where Juventus has always been a warm home regardless of the form of this goalkeeper. However, it is no coincidence that Buffon returned to Juve. While he was intending to contact Pep, Juve president Andrea Agnelli told Buffon to come back first and the contract for shirt number 77 took place last week.
In the new contract, Gigi will play at least 10 matches. Thereby, he will become the player with the most appearances in Serie A history, surpassing the great Paolo Maldini of the time at AC Milan.
