The former Italy international goalkeeper is a free agent at the moment, having left French giants Paris Saint-Germain this summer.

Blockbuster signing for Leeds United

Buffon is past his time at the age of 41, but the former Juventus star is still capable of doing a better job than most goalkeepers at the top level.

The Juventus legend would be a blockbuster signing for Leeds, but it is hard to see the Italy switch to Elland Road.

After all, Buffon would command huge wages, and he is unlikely to see the second tier of English football as an attractive domestic league to play in.
