He's 43 years old, is a world champion and is close to signing in Barcelona

If you review the history of the most important Italian players in history, their names are one of the first that come to mind. And at 43, he is more current than ever and can be a reinforcement of Barcelona in the next few hours.

We are talking about Gianluigi Buffon, who was World Champion in Germany 2006 with Italy and left Juventus and is close to signing at the Spanish club to be teammates with Lionel Messi. But he isn't the only club that wants him, since also Parma, a club in which he made his debut and which was relegated to Serie B in Italy.

"I still don't have an answer, I'm carrying out important reflections, which, in the end, will take me abroad to play the Champions League as a starter or to continue in Italy," he said in dialogue with Mediaset in the framework of the inauguration of his academy of archers.

"In any case, it will be something that I will not regret," he reinforced about what he decides about continuing to be linked to the profession.

The Italian media La Gazzetta dello Sport or Corriere della Sera affirm that the two most important proposals that Buffon has are those of Barcelona and Parma. It's expected that in the next few days he will confirm the place where he will continue to play.
