Juventus chief Giovanni Cobolli Gigli has declared that Gianluigi Buffon will never be sold to Inter or Milan.
The Bianconero has been paired with a summer move, after stating that he was missing Champions League football, and reports suggested that he might join one of the Milan clubs.
“I want to tell our supporters who fear Buffon’s move to Inter that this is not only an absurd hypothesis, but it isn’t even an hypothesis,” Cobolli Gigli told Controcampo.
“Honestly, if this were to happen it would just be too much, we would not be able to look them in the eye,” added official.
“This is also more or less true for Milan. During the last Lega meeting I told both Massimo Moratti and Adriano Galliani that Buffon is untouchable.
“They also asked me to inform them if we were to change our mind, but I replied this is not an option,” concluded the Juventino.
The goalkeeper admitted over the weekend that his future has yet to be decided, as the reports hinting that he was close to joining one of the San Siro outfits were false.
“I may stay, I might go, but nobody knows what I have decided – not even me. The only thing I feel that I can say is that I will not make the decision by myself. It will be in agreement with the club,” declared the world champion.
