I see Buffon retiring after next season...we need a GK so that's why we are desperately trying to find someone ONE TIME for the long term with all the GK's coming & going.
good transfer I think... he's only 25? so will have a re-sell value age-wise... now there is a possibility to sell both Neto and Leali to help fund a transfer for a better keeper in case none of these two are up for it in a few years time.

I think Buffon plays until the 2018 World Cup. I think that is his plan. He concludes his great career with a final WC. Will he start for Italy and Juve until then? I'm not sure but I think he hangs on to play three more years after this one. If injuries start to mount then maybe he quits after the 2015 Euros, especially if Italy comes out on top.
Marotta said Leali is Buffon's heir. I love what I see from Neto so far but will we use him as bargain chip or is he the 'solution' until Leali is mature enough to play for the first team?
