Gianluigi Buffon’s romance with Juventus is certain to end at the end of the 2020-2021 season. The news of his departure from Juventus at the end of this season was even conveyed directly by Buffon.
Buffon is known to be running out of his contract at Juventus at the end of June 2021. Towards the end of the contract, the veteran goalkeeper has not yet signed a new agreement with the Old Lady-the nickname of Juventus.
No doubt, Buffon’s future is plagued by various unsavory rumors that widely link him to the exit of Juventus. Now, the Italian goalkeeper has confirmed that he will not renew his contract at Juventus and is ready to leave at the end of this season.
This news will suddenly end Buffon’s long-running romance with Juventus. He has 19 years of career defending Juventus and can help the team win many prestigious titles.
In total, Buffon has won 21 titles during his time at Juventus. Among them are the Italian League titles that have been won in nine consecutive seasons. Unfortunately this year, Juventus failed to maintain its dominance in the Italian League because it was stopped by Inter Milan.
Even so, Buffon still feels proud and happy while defending Juventus. He called his time with Juventus to be good times.
“My future is clear and certain. A wonderful and very long experience with Juventus will end this year, “Buffon said, as quoted by the Italian Football, Tuesday (11/5/2021).
“Either I stop playing or if I find a situation that motivates me to play or have a different life experience, I will consider it,” he continued.
“I feel I have given everything for Juventus. I have accepted everything. We have reached the end of a cycle and it is right for someone to remove the distraction, “said Buffon.
