Benfica have allegedly earmarked out-of-contract Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon as their top summer transfer targets, amid interest from Sevilla and Olympiacos also.
The Italian will leave the Bianconeri at the end of June after playing 14 times for Andrea Pirlo’s side in all competitions this season.
It is believed that Buffon is desperate to continue his career and wants a regular starting role with his next club.
The Daily Mail reports that Benfica are keen to sign the 43-year-old goalkeeper, with the club able to qualify for the Champions League next season.
The veteran goalie has won 10 Serie A titles, the Ligue 1 title and the World Cup with Italy.
Buffon has spent 19 years with Juventus across two spells and racked up 930 appearances at club level since 1995.
