The legendary goalkeeper of Juventus Gianluigi Buffon announced his resignation from the club.

Goalkeeper today, May 17, convened a press conference, which said that he was leaving. However, whether this means the completion of a career, or whether the veteran will continue it in another place - is still unknown.

The last match in the T-shirt "Juventus" Buffon will hold on Saturday, May 19, against "Verona".

"This is a special day for me, now I feel happy and carefree. These feelings overwhelm me thanks to the incredible way that I went along with really close people, the love of which I felt day after day.

Saturday match against "Verona" will be the last for me for "Juventus". I think this will be the best way to complete such a fantastic story. I was afraid that this adventure will end as a player who is put in the composition only out of politeness, because his engine has already died out for a long time. I can say that everything ended completely differently.

I am proud that until the very end I spoke may not be at its highest level, but at least at a level that deserves the name "Juventus".

My future? I received proposals to continue my career on the field, and beyond. Next week I will make a decision, "- concluded Buffon.

Note that Buffon played for the Turin club since 2001. On his account 655 matches for the team with which he won 9 times in Serie A and 4 times the Cup of Italy, but still did not win in the Champions League.
