Goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon to Leave PSG When Contract Expires

Paris Saint-Germain confirmed on Wednesday they will not be renewing the contract of goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon this summer.

The Italian veteran joined the French side ahead of the 2018-19 season, having ended a 17-year stint with Serie A giants Juventus. The Ligue 1 champions confirmed Buffon's adventure in Paris will end after just one season though:
