Buffon warns Juventus not to take fourth-place for granted

Juventus goalkeeper Gigi Buffon has warned teammates not to be complacent about their fourth placing.

Juve are only one point clear of the chasing pack.

“Seeing the distance from third and also from fifth we still need to look behind us as well as forward,” Buffon explained.

“If Inter continue to have important obstacles to cross I believe that both Milan and Roma can give the Nerazzurri a hard time.”

Buffon also denied claims that his latest injury setback could jeopardise his place at this summer's World Cup.

“Absolutely not. Luckily I have hurt myself at the right moment,” he joked.
