Parma, 28 February 2022 – Gigi Buffon does not leave, but rather doubles. After signing last summer with the Parma for two seasons, the former Juventus goalkeeper extends until 30 June 2024, when he will be 46 years old. “I have great news: Gigi has renewed his contract until 2024 – the announcement of the president of the Gialloblù club, Kyle Krause – He is a great player and this is a great pride for us. In addition to his great leadership skills, he is a person of great human skills. Gigi has a great passion for Parma and Parma, which we can see every day. We are very very happy for his support and for his commitment. ”
“Exciting challenge”
Buffon is also enthusiastic, who dreams of bringing the club back to the top league. An objective that is difficult to achieve in this year, but the renewal shows how ambition is there. “Today for me and for my whole family is a beautiful day. What I wanted happened and which I think the president and the club also wanted, as well as I hope that all the fans and the city will be happy. My return to Parma has been conditioned by the relationships and a deep bond I have always had with this city. If I hadn’t believed in what the president has in mind and in what we are doing, I would not have accepted this proposal. I am optimistic for the future of this club because I met the president. For me it is a beautiful and exciting challenge, I feel I can give a great hand. And there is nothing better than being able to do it in Parma. “
