Juventus, Buffon: "I will play as long as I want to suffer. I have also put the group ahead of myself "

Gianluigi Buffon was a guest of Oscar Farinetti in the Fontanafredda estate at Serralunga d'Alba, and he took the time to speak about his future, Juve's current form and Davide Astori: "The motivation is everything. While I have the desire to suffer, to compete, I will go forward. After the passion that motivated me in the first years I made the challenge my objective, to fight for a bigger objective. I must understand, together with the club, at what level of energy I will be and if I will continue or not. The things that have made me remain calm is the fact that, whatever my future is, I feel very calm and thankful for what my career has been and for what I have given to Parma, Juventus, the Italian national team and the whole of football. I know that I have always worked with extreme seriousness and selflessness, putting the group ahead of myself. Davide Astori? To go to Florence for us juventini is never simple, but upon our arrival for our last goodbye to Davide we saw the Fiorentina fans applauded us, that they were calling us and thanking us. It was beautiful. It was a last goodbye not to a great friend of mine, but to one of the most beautiful people I have come across in this sport. He was someone who with his calm and serenity was appreciated by everyone and had his say. He had a clear identity. He knew who he was and knew his limits and virtues. He was a great guy, an unconventional star and I am content that in this week his name has been raised along with the perception that one has of him. Davide deserved it."
