I didn't know Buffon is from Tuscany. Copied from Wikileaks:
"Buffon transferred from Parma to Juventus in the summer of 2001 for €53 million, along with former Parma teammate Lilian Thuram, and was handed the number 1 shirt as the starting goalkeeper, replacing Edwin van der Sar, who was sold to Fulham.[51] Buffon later said that there had been an initial possibility for him to join Roma, but they signed Ivan Pelizzoli instead, and although negotiations were ongoing with Barcelona, he chose Juventus because his father convinced him he would be likely to achieve his ambition of winning the Scudetto."

Lol at Roma transfers.
Carrara is barely in Tuscany though. It's as close to Genoa as it is Florence, which explains why he supports them.
