Buffon going nowhere

Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon has given his crisis-hit side a welcome boost, announcing that he has decided to stay at the Delle Alpi next season. The 28 year-old, who recently helped Italy lift their fourth World Cup, is willing to drop down a division and help his team fight for promotion.

for at least 2 seasons it would seem, ppl seem to forget they will start with a -30 point deficit. and prolly about 20% of the current stars they have in their squad.

Abbiati would of gone to Juventus in exchange, but Milan sold him to Torino instead.

Yeah Milan was the only real pretender for him but the deal officially finished with the teams in bad terms. So yes, he's staying.

They'll reduce the 30 points to 10-15.
And we're asking Serie A anyway.
Nothing is sure yet.
