After a year away from Turin, Gianluigi Buffon has returned to Juventus, after penning in a one-year contract which will tie him to the club until 30 June 2020.
Buffon originally signed for the Bianconeri on 3 July 2001 and went on to make 656 appearances over 17 years, winning nine Serie A titles and four Coppa Italias. He left Juventus and went to Paris on 19 May 2018.
After a year with Paris Saint-Germain, where Gigi registered saves on 73,5% of his attempts, won 13 of 17 games played in Ligue 1, and added a French league title along with a Super Cup to his incredible trophy cabinet, Gigi has officially returned to Juventus.
The 41-year-old becomes Juve’s third signing of the summer

Buffon should retire for Christ sake. he is 41. he should go by the side and let the young GKs get to do the job. I know he is trying to fulfil his dream of playing with CR7 and winning of UCL...but he got to put his boot and glove behind his trophy Cabinet. look at Arjen Roben has retired at the age of 35, like wise Torres. RETIRE MANIE

I think buffon wants to ease into a leadership position with juve, which is why he is moving back. He really wants to help lead the team, and since they have Ronaldo, buffon must believe juve have a better chance at winning the ucl over psg. This will be a better end to his career than playing at psg. (plus areola and the other young keepers can really develop into world class players now without being discredited).

hahaha he's just running around from one club to the other looking for Champions League trophy he has seen that players are joining Juventus and it looks like they are going to win the Champions League next season so that's why he's going back but my question is why is, why did they buy him back?

I have no idea why Juve re-sign him. You got young players, why not expose them. You must give chance a young players to prove they talent. Buffon already history, pass is pass. Now is the time to look for future or long term plan.

Gigi welcome back, but there will be no CL for you, because we know that, that is why you come back, because there is the most dangerous striker that always deal with you that now plays in Juventus. CR7

I wanted Buffon to return to Juventus! I had already advised him that he should return because now Ronaldo is also in Juventus and now he will not disrespect him by that adorable bicycle kick because now they are teammates![Crylaugh] But a healthy welcome to the Legends of Legends, welcome back Buffon!

Buffon is back, he has one unfinished business with UEFA champions league before he retires, thank God, we have CR7 in the attack, it's time for Buffon and CR7, to lift the UEFA champions league together

With World Cup, Seria A, Copa Italia; the only cup devoid of this Legend's reach is a Uefa Champions League to his name, only if Juve will just grant this old man's simple wish this campaign. I like his 'never say die' courage and won't quit the stage until that dream is achieved. Juventus is always your home, Legend.
