Juventus captain Gigi Buffon proud to break another record

Juventus captain Gigi Buffon says there's no thoughts of retirement.

The goalkeeper made history today, as with 39,711 Serie A minutes he played more than any other Juventus man, surpassing Giampiero Boniperti.

“I am honoured to have been able to wear the Juventus jersey for such a long time and I hope to continue wearing it for a good while yet," Buffon told Sky Sport Italia.

“Today we met a Sampdoria side in good shape that has a clear idea of its football and good youth. It was fundamental we get the victory and we did, even if we had to fight for it."
