Buffon: «We'll fight to win every trophy»

He's back from his holidays fully refreshed, after being one of the best performers for Italy at the European Championships, and now he's ready to raise the stakes again. Gigi Buffon has gone back to work to prepare for another season in the spotlight: «We'll fight to win the Champions League, as we will to win the League – he explained to Juventus Channel - all those trophies that Juventus have always fought for. It's going to be a long and very intense season and we must start to prepare it well right away».

Last year Gigi was one of the most cautious at Juventus when speaking about the team's chances to compete for the Scudetto, but this year, despite displaying his usual humbleness, he's conscious it's time to fight for ambitious goals: «Ambition has always been there, even if we weren't on the same level as the others. Now that we've strengthened the team, our ambitions are more justified and we must never lose confidence in our potential. That confidence has always been one of our qualities and we need to keep it always within us».
