Japanese media on Buffon: The 43-year-old still has a good performance in Serie B, with the highest number of saves and save points in the league

This summer, legendary goalkeeper Buffon announced that he was leaving Juventus, returning to his old club Parma and playing in Serie B with his team.

But Buffon, who is about to turn 44 in January next year, is still in excellent form, and although Parma is in poor form and currently ranks 14th in the league, it still can't hide Buffon's outstanding performance. He has made 66 successful saves this season and saved two penalties, both of which are at the top of the league table, in addition to the goalkeeper with the second highest passing success rate, with a success rate of 75.83%. The data site Sofascore also shows that Buffon's average score this season is 7.24, the third-highest number for a Serie B goalkeeper.

Despite being a 43-year-old "senior player" and in a state no longer what he was then, he is still the gate in the team's backline, defending Parma Town.
