Marotta, Al-Khelaifi both open PSG door to Buffon

PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi is coy over talk of a move for Gigi Buffon.

After announcing his departure from Juventus, the 40 year-old goalkeeper has been linked with a two-year contract offer at PSG.

Al-Khelaifi said: "Buffon? He is a fantastic, charismatic keeper, a great lord: I'm sure all the clubs would like him."

Juve GM Beppe Marotta, meanwhile, declared on Saturday: "Buffon and the PSG? He will have to decide between a few positions behind the desk or to continue playing, should he choose for this second choice, the French team is in the running."
