Man City ready to bid €70m for Buffon

City’s new Arab owners are keen to bring in the greatest players in the world and could make a move for Buffon in the January transfer window.

“If we can buy the greatest players in the world then we will; we only want the strongest,” Doctor Sulaim al-Fahim told Leggo.

Buffon joined Juventus for £32 million from Parma in 2001.
