Gianluigi Buffon’s agent believes the goalkeeper has what it takes to not only become a coach but also manage Juventus. ‘He understands football.’

Gianluigi Donnarumma has so far taken over the veteran’s No 1 shirt for Italy, but Silvino Martina felt there were two others still in with a shout.

“Meret and Perin are two great goalkeepers,” Martina told Radio Kiss Kiss.
