I have one more chance to win the Champions League – Buffon

Juventus goalkeeper, Gianluigi Buffon, has said he will give himself “one more chance” of winning the Champions League.

The 39-year-old suffered defeat in the final of the competition for a third time on Saturdy, after they were beaten 4-1 by Real Madrid in Cardiff.

But he is not ready to give up.

Buffon said: “I still have one more year on my contract, so that means I have one more chance of winning the Champions League.

“Admittedly, it’ll be tough to do better than this year, because we could’ve done something truly incredible this season. Unfortunately, we didn’t manage it.”

Buffon would go down as one of the greats never to lift the Champions League, having already hinted that he could retire after after the World Cup in 2018.
