Juventus’ backup goalkeeper Neto insists he has a “good relationship” with Gianluigi Buffon.

The Brazilian left Fiorentina to join the Bianconeri on a free transfer this summer, with some viewing it as a strange choice, given Buffon has been Juventus’ first-choice since 2001.

“I came to Juventus to be part of the group,” Neto told Goal.

“It's one of the five, ten greatest clubs in the world. It's the coach's decision as to whether I play or not, but I'm always ready.
