Director Parma: If the promotion is successful, he will renew Buffon's contract for 1 year, and if he fails, it will be up to him

In an interview, Parma director Ribalta talked about Buffon, who recently celebrated his 44th birthday, and talked about his future.

Ribalta said: "At the beginning I didn't think he would actually come back to Parma, after our game against Juventus last season, our chairman gave us the idea, and at the start of the transfer market last summer, I talked to Buffon's agent about the transfer. Then one day he called me and said, 'Finish the deal!' ’”

"Just like that, we signed Buffon. Will Buffon renew his contract? If we can succeed in promotion, then we will renew our contract for another season, but if we fail to promote and stay in Serie B, then Buffon will decide his future, obviously he can decide his future. ”

Parma have performed poorly in Serie B this season, suffering from severe blood losses in the winter window, selling main winger Mihaila to Atalanta and negotiating with team captain Yakoponi to terminate the contract. Poor results also demoralized the team, but Buffon remained in excellent shape and always performed well. At present, Parma have won 20 games, 5 wins, 9 draws and 6 losses, ranking 13th in Serie B with 24 points, and have only won 1 of their last 9 games, 4 points ahead of Alexandria in the relegation play-off zone, and the upgrade situation is not optimistic.
