Former Inter goalkeeper Sebastien Frey has “always loved” Gigi Buffon but “if I were him I’d have quit”.
The Italy legend left Juventus when his contract expired, but rather than retiring as many expected he signed a deal with Paris Saint-Germain.
“I don’t understand two things, from Gigi’s view and PSG’s point of view,” Frey noted in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport.

“I don’t understand two things, from Gigi’s view and PSG’s point of view,” Frey noted in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport.
“The first is: why have someone who is really strong like [Alphonse] Areola and sign Buffon? I’ve always loved Gigi, he made history, but if I were him I’d have quit. I hope he’s finished with Italy.
“The second is, if they got him to be a leader in the dressing room then he’s a pretty expensive one…
“PSG have three goalkeepers who cost €18m, and the one who is paid least starts.”
