It's interesting to talk about Buffon because it seems, Buffon might be the only player who started his career and ended his career at the same club and that is Parma. Of course, as a legendary player there are many achievements that Buffon has and next, I will probably wait too. Will Buffon eventually become the head coach of a club in Serie A, or maybe Buffon will just pursue another business out there. But as a legendary player, I really hope that Buffon can become a head coach at a club in the future. Although it is possible, the chances are very low because it seems Buffon also is probably too old to start as a head coach.
Not only Buffon, but sometimes other players also choose to retire to the club that started their career. But it is clear that Buffon is different from other players because he is so special and during his 28 years of career in football he has won various prestigious European titles and even the world cup in 2006. Buffon is a legend for all players and especially for today's talented goalkeeper, of course, Buffon's influence is the beginning of their interest in becoming a great goalkeeper.
I think it will be very difficult for any goalkeeper to beat the statistics of Buffon's career as a goalkeeper so far and maybe it will take a very long time to see another goalkeeper who has achieved the same as him. To be a head coach, I think it is quite difficult because you rarely see a former goalkeeper who has become a successful coach and maybe Buffon is more suitable to be a mentor for young players in the Italian national team.
Buffon was well performing and legendary player and in the last years of playing for Prama he could even have the better performance we know from Buffon, other than this some players sell the end of their careers for money and they will try to play in the team where they can earn more money but the good thing about players like Buffon is they choose to get tried in the team they like not for money, that's another reason to say Buffon was respectable player, he usually had good behavior with other players.
Now I think we should wait to see Buffon coaching younger players and helping them, and maybe will start his career in Prama.
