Veteran goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon is reportedly considering one final year away from Juventus, with his current contract coming to the end this summer.

Veteran Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon is reportedly considering spending one more season away from Turin before retiring.

The 43-year-old has spent 19 out of his last 20 seasons at Juventus, registering 322 clean sheets in 681 games for the Old Lady.

Buffon moved to Paris Saint-Germain for the 2018-19 season in a rotational role with Alphonse Areola, winning the Trophee des Champions and the Ligue 1 title in his single season at the French champions.

The Italy international moved back to Juventus the following season despite Wojciech Szczesny being first-team keeper at the Serie A giants.

Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Buffon is now considering one final year away from Juventus, with his contract drawing to a close at the end of the season.

Buffon won the World Cup for Italy in 2006, in addition to 10 Serie A winners' medals, but is set to conclude his career without winning the Champions League.
