Buffon reveals club he could have joined after Juventus exit
"I could have considered a move to Lazio because their fans have always treated me like a champion, a man to be honoured," he told the media.
"This has an important value for me, but I think the best solution was to leave Italy, to expand my world of knowledge," Buffon added.
The 40-year-old legend joined PSG on a free transfer this summer after 17 years at Juventus. During this time the goalkeeper collected 656 appearances for the Bianconeri in all competitions.
Moreover, Buffon won 9 Serie A titles with the club along with 4 Italian Cups and 5 Supercups. With the Italian national team, he reached the pinnacle of world football by winning the World Cup in Germany in 2006.
