Buffon to play final game for Juventus

    Buffon will play his final game for Juventus this weekend after 17 years with the club.

    The Italy goalkeeper will lift his ninth Serie A title against Hellas Verona at the Allianz Stadium on Saturday 19 May.

    Buffon, 40, is facing a Uefa ban for comments made about English referee Michael Oliver, who sent him off during the Champions League quarter-final defeat by Real Madrid last month. However, he offered his apologies at a press conference on Thursday.

    He is Italy's most capped player with 176 appearances but retired from national team duty after they failed to qualify for the World Cup in November.
