'I don't want Chiellini's armband or Szczesny's shirt' - Buffon cuts a low profile on Juventus return

New Juventus signing Gianluigi Buffon is not interested in regaining either the captain's armband nor the No.1 jersey in Turin after completing a move back to his former stamping ground.

Buffon had departed Juve after almost 20 trophy-laden years in the summer of 2018, joining Paris Saint-Germain.

His time in France did not go all to plan, however, as he came under criticism for a mistake during PSG's Champions League defeat at the hands of Manchester United before confirming in June that he would not be extending his stay at Parc des Princes.
