Live broadcast on August 4th when interviewed by market-wide reporters, Buffon agent Martina talked about some choices in his career of Buffon.
He said: “Everything he did in Buffon career was planned, but injuries also affected him. In 2018, he almost retired, but I didn’t know he was thinking about it, so I tried to find the best solution for him, and then we went to pull Paris Saint Germain together, this extended his career for another 5-6 years.”
“When he left Juventus, 3-4 teams, including Barcelona, wanted to sign Buffon. Then we made a decision at the meeting. He was very excited about Parma’s offer, so he chose to return to Palma. He almost always made his own decisions in his career, but in 2001, it was his father and I who decided to let him join Juve.”
“Because Parma had reached an agreement with Barcelona at that time, I went to Spain and everything went smoothly. Then when I returned to Milan, I went to rozano. Moji called me and said, “where are you going? Buffon must be ours, then I asked him to make an offer, but he replied, ‘Come tomorrow, ‘and then the career of Juve began Buffon.”
