Juventus chairman Andrea Agnelli is reportedly planning to meet with Gianluigi Buffon next week in an attempt to extend the goalkeeper's contract.

Juventus will reportedly hold talks with veteran goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon over a one-year contract extension next week.

The Italy international has registered 322 clean sheets in 682 games for the Italian giants over his 19-season spell in Turin.

Last week it was revealed that Buffon was considering spending one more year away from Juventus before retiring, with his contract drawing to a close at the end of the season.

However, according to Tuttosport, Juventus are keen to keep the World Cup-winning keeper for another season, with chairman Andrea Agnelli planning to persuade Buffon to stay another season.

The Old Lady still believe that the 43-year-old is a key player for them, despite the fact that he is no longer number one, with Poland international Wojciech Szczesny favoured over him.

Buffon made a rare start for Juventus in a big match against Napoli on Wednesday, helping the champions to a 2-1 win.
