Gianluigi Buffon He is enjoying his new life away from the green but that doesn’t mean he will stop thinking about football. In fact, he is training as a sports director, and also, as the powerful voice he is in this matter of ‘calcio’, he recently reflected on a possible change in the regulations that will undoubtedly change football drastically . “There is talk about expanding the goals and I think we can start thinking about it. The dimensions have been the same since 1875 and then maybe they were too big but now, seeing some goalkeepers are you can imagine. You can see the effect of the height of goalkeepers on shots from a distance: 30 years ago, about 10 goals were scored for every 50 shots. Today, no more than 3. From a distance it is very difficult to score a goal against a two-meter goalkeeper,” he explained. Buffon in an interview given to Tuttosport.
Buffon He hung up his gloves at the end of last season after a more than lengthy professional career. “I understood my importance for the first time when with PSG We traveled to the East and I was almost happy with the number of people looking for me. I said Verratti: ‘but do you realize that I am a 41 year old man’. People’s love excites me, because you can win anything you want, but if there is no one waiting for you at the airport, you hardly win,” he said about it.
Finally, he talked about the next one European Cup and the options of an Italy that, although defending its title, suffered more than expected to qualify. “The first match will be played Dortmund, where I have only good memories, both in Italy and at Juve. Be careful with Albaniawhich is the first rival and the main one,” he concluded.
