DBasia.news – Italy legendary goalkeeper who is currently supporting Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) admits that he doesn’t know when will retire.
Currently, Buffon is 40 years old. However, the former Juventus and Italy national team goalkeeper hasn’t described his retirement plan due to the situation that encourages him to keep on playing.
“I’ve learned in recent years that it would be a mistake to set a limit,” Buffon said.
“At 32 I thought I’d play until 35. After that, circumstances dictated that I keep playing. Then I said to myself: ‘I’ll stop at 38’. But at 38 I said: ‘I’ll stop at 40’,” Buffon added.
“Life has made it so that I’m still here today, I could stop in six months, a year or 10 years and I don’t want to ask, I don’t want to know.”
“I’m sure that the emotions and the life I’ve had, even in the dressing room, are not something I can find elsewhere. I’m not sure that a normal player would have lived this life the way I have. You have to accept that life has several phases, and you must never be surprised.”
“So, I know that one day it’ll happen, and I won’t be taken by surprise. But I also know that everything will be completely different.”
