Despite winning the domestic league, it was another disappointing season for Thomas Tuchel’s men. PSG not only faced an early knockout against Manchester United at the round of 16 of Champions League but also failed to win last season’s Coupe de France competition.
Gianluigi Buffon, 41, was an integral part of this PSG side. Last season, Buffon made 24 appearances in PSG colours, while keeping an average of 3 saves per match. He also kept eight clean sheets for the French outfit throughout the 2018-19 campaign.

Reports from Sky Italia have claimed that Barcelona have shown some fresh interest in Gianluigi Buffon. As per the same reports, the clubs from China and Fenerbache are also keeping their eyes on the situation.

What is next?
Barcelona have already splashed around £75millon to sign Frenkie de Jong and is expected to spend more in the summer transfer window. Barca will play their first pre-season match on 23rd July against Chelsea at Saitama Stadium.
