Former goalkeeper for Juventus and PSG, Gianluigi Buffon, has shared his views on the best footballer he has faced during his professional career.
Buffꦍon stated, as reported by Corriere della Sera:
The best player I’ve played with… I’d say Neymar Jr. In my opinion, he deserved to win FIVE Ballon d’Or. I had the chance to share the pitch with Zidane, Ronaldo, Messi and more… but Ney was really special guy and player.
Buffon and Neymar were teammates at Paris Saint-Germain from 2018 to 20🎃19. Neymar's highest achievement in the race for the prestigious Ballon d'Or came in 2015 when he finished in third place.
