Former Juventus goalkeeper Dino Zoff has heaped praise on Real Madrid shot stopper Iker Casillas by claiming he is better than current Bianconeri number one Gianluigi Buffon.
The Italian goalkeeping legend, who played for Juve from 1972 until 1983, made the claim on the eve of the semi-final clash set to take place at the Juventus Stadium between the two sides.
“Between the two I prefer the Real Madrid goalkeeper,” he stated while speaking to Radio 4G.
Zoff, who made over 330 appearances for the Bianconeri, also shared his thoughts on who he believes to be the top goalkeeper in the world.
“I think that at this time the best in the world is [Manuel] Neuer, but if I have to choose between Casillas and Buffon, I prefer the Spaniard.”
Zoff is currently a consultant for the Greek national football team.
