Gianluigi Buffon has admitted that he would consider leaving Juventus one day, but only for Parma.

The goalkeeper, is on the verge of signing a new deal with the Bianconeri as his current contract expires in June 2013.

Buffon told La Nazione: “I’ll sign my contract soon.  It is not a question of money and everything will be made official in a little while.”

“If I left Juve then I would happily go back to Parma, the side who launched me at the top level.”

The 34-year-old came through the youth ranks at Parma and made his Serie A debut at 17 in a 0-0 draw with AC Milan.

In 2001 he became the world’s most expensive goalkeeper when he joined Juve for £32m.

He has made twelve appearences in Serie A this season, keeping four clean sheets.
