Buffon arrives Juve ahead of another historic return

Gianluigi Buffon has arrived at Juventus’ medical facility ahead of his stunning return to the Serie A champions.

Sources close to a remarkable move revealed to Goal back in June that a deal to take the Bianconeri legend back to Turin was being considered .

Just 12 months have passed since Buffon bid an emotional farewell to Juve when the decision was taken to move on at the end of his contract after spending 17 memorable years with the club.

Paris Saint-Germain seized the opportunity to snap up a modern-day icon on a short-term deal in the summer of 2018, however, Buffon spent just one season with the Ligue 1 title holders.

He is now 41 years of age, but has no desire to hang up his gloves and is ready to retrace his steps back to Italy.

It is understood that the World Cup-winning goalkeeper will sign a one-year contract with Juve once he has completed all of the necessary physical assessments.
