World-class shot-stopper Gianluigi Buffon has dismissed any thoughts of an exit from Juventus, stressing he would like to continue playing for the Bianconeri until at least 2015, with the Champions League on his mind.
Buffon joined Juventus in 2001 and quickly developed into one of the best goalkeepers on the planet, winning praise from all corners and being at the centre of the success the Bianconeri have enjoyed since.
The goalkeeper did not even abandon Juventus when they spent a season in Serie B due to the Calciopoli scandal and has been saluted for his loyalty, which shows no sign of stopping.
"I have been wearing this shirt for 12 years", said the Italian, "and I hope that my adventure with Juventus will be a long one, at least up to 15 years."
And the custodian explained that he is determined to win "something important" with the Bianconeri before he hangs up his gloves, with the clear nod being towards the Champions League given that Juventus won Serie A last season without losing a single game.
"To complete my time at Juventus I want to win something important."
