The Bianconeri today celebrated their Scudetto and Coppa Italia triumphs, so can go for the Treble in Berlin on June 6.

“We are very positive, as in two weeks many things could change on a psychological and physical level,” Buffon told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“Clearly on paper it’s difficult, but we have what it takes to play this the best way. If Barcelona all reach the Final at 100 per cent, then obviously it’ll be tough.

“Seeing as we are there, we want to play our cards and not hold back. There is so much pride in our souls for everything we’ve done this season and in past years.

“We know how strong Barcelona are and the optimism circulating right now will wane as we get closer to our opponents.

“None of this affects us, as we know that we are an excellent team. We know Barcelona are stronger, but in a one-off game the best side doesn’t always win. You have to be better on the night and lucky too.

“Who knows, maybe in Berlin we’ll get the rub of the green.”

There are calls for Buffon to receive the Ballon d’Or if Juventus do win the Treble.

“It’s pleasing, but it would not just be a reward for my career. Along with my teammates, I had a great season.”
