Buffon unaware of City bid

Buffon: Knows nothing of City bid

Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon is unaware of a reported offer from Manchester City.

Buffon has been mooted as a leading January target for City since the Abu Dhabi United Group took over the Premier League club.

Reports have suggested that City recently tabled a 75million euros (Ј63million) bid to try to tempt Buffon to England in the New Year.

However, Juventus denied receiving an offer from City and also insisted that the Italy No.1 is not for sale.

Concrete guy

The 30-year-old also knows nothing of any interest from City and says his focus is on returning to the Juve team after being out for almost two months through injury.

“I am a concrete guy, there are all these rumours around, but I know nothing. No-one has told me anything,” Buffon told LA 7.

“I have returned to training and all is going well. It was hard at first during the initial stage, but slowly it’s getting better.

“However, I will not be back until the New Year.”
