Just seen the highlights to the Brescia goal; it baffles me how identifying a threat who's about to get a free header from less than 10 yards from goal and closing down on him rather than wait for a free header on goal from that distance is a mistake of Buffon or even lacking in sharpness.

With Juventus unlikely to qualify for the Champions League this season the club are planning a summer shopping spree, according to reports from Italy.

The Bianconeri plan to add a number of arrivals in the summer and might have to offload Buffon or Chiellini to fund their ambitious plan, claims Corriere dello Sport.

The first arrival is likely to be Lyon's Michel Bastos, who would operate on the opposite flank to the impressive Milos Krasic to form a dynamic partnership.

The Old Lady are also being heavily linked with the Udinese's Chilean star Alexis Sanchez, Villarreal top scorer Giuseppe Rossi, Santos starlet Neymar and Jeremy Menez who has established himself as one of the most sought-after wingers in European football.

Sampdoria's Andrea Poli is also being touted as a future Juventus player, although any transfer will surely be dependent on the departure of either 'keeper Buffon or star centre-half Chiellini.

If Buffon is sold it appears Arsenal and Roma would be favourites to land the experienced Italian number one, although Manchester United and Manchester City are thought to have also expressed an interest in the 33-year-old.

Interest in Chiellini is also fierce, although Manchester United are believed to be in pole position for the no nonsense defender.

However, the Red Devils will only come in for Chiellini if Real Madrid make an official approach for Nemanja Vidic, with the Premier League champions reportedly wanting a capable replacement for the Serbian.
