Okay, this might be the weirdest rumour we have read in a while but The Sun seem to have won the cake as they claim Gianluigi Buffon is contemplating offers from two Premier League teams: Liverpool and Manchester City.

After Buffon's announcement that he is set to leave the Old Lady but not yet prepared to retire altogether, there is a chance that he could play in England's top-flight given he also confirmed that he's not going to join another Italian club, nor is he prepared to drop down quality of league to play regularly in future.

Liverpool don’t entirely have world-class goalkeepers and could be a viable option for him.
