Gianluigi Buffon hopes Juventus “can make history” on Saturday, but they’ll have to “pay extra attention” to Real Madrid’s forwards.
The Bianconeri will win the treble if they defeat Los Merengues in Cardiff, and would be only the second Italian side to achieve that feat, after Inter in 2010.
“This will be a very important match, just like it was two years ago against Barcelona and 14 years ago against Milan,” Buffon told Premium Sport.

“This will be a very important match, just like it was two years ago against Barcelona and 14 years ago against Milan,” Buffon told Premium Sport.
“The fact that after two years we’ve come back to this level, and that we’ve gained the opportunity to make history in Italian and European football, means our path has been built on important values and that has given us good results.
“In a final like this the threshold of attention is already at the top level a few hours before the game, regardless of the opponents.
“Then if you have great players like [Cristiano] Ronaldo, [Karim] Benzema or [Gareth] Bale in front of you you have to have a pinch of extra attention.”
