Agent of Juventus keeper Buffon reveals Arsenal contact
|
Gianluigi Buffon's agent has claimed Arsenal have been in touch regarding a possible bid for the Juventus keeper.
The Italy international is currently on World Cup duty in Germany, but he faces an uncertain club future.
Juventus are under investigation amid match-fixing allegations and any punishment could see the Italian champions relegated.
Such an eventuality would almost certainly lead to Buffon's exit and Arsenal have been credited with an interest.
Buffon's representative Silvano Martina said: "The negotiation exists, but it isn't easy.
"London is a pleasing option, but Gigi would like to stay in Italy.
"Despite this, Arsenal remains a welcome solution."
