Gigi Buffon is looking beyond the 136-cap record that he could equal with the Italian national side next week. The Juventus custodian will draw level with the tally of Fabio Cannavaro if he features against Bulgaria on Friday and the Czech Republic, at the Juventus Stadium, on Tuesday. “If all goes well, it would be a great achievement,”. “However, it was predictable in a way given that I started with the national team at such a young age. “It will certainly be nice though, satisfying, because I have been in the national side for 16 beautiful years – in the squad since 1997 and a first choice since 1998. “Saying that, I’ve also had my injuries which raised doubts which I have been able to overcome.” World Cup winner Buffon, born in January 1978, made his debut in October 1997 during a World Cup qualifier in Russia.
