Juventus eyeing Buffon replacement

Juventus have three talented goalkeepers on their list of potential replacements for Gianluigi Buffon, according to Tuttosport.

While the veteran keeper is reportedly set to extend his deal until June 2016, club officials are aware they need to start looking for a long-term successor to the Italy international.

Tuttosport has suggested that Benfica starlet Jan Oblak is one of the first names on the hit list and the only foreign player among the targets.

The Slovenian has largely impressed playing for the Eagles in Europa League and he is currently on the radar of quite a few top clubs.

Meanwhile, the Bianconeri are also looking at Udinese wonderkid Simone Scuffet, with the 17-year-old producing some mature displays in the 16 Serie A outings he made for Friulani.

Juventus already has one talented keeper on their books as Under-21 international Nicola Leali is owned by the Old Lady, and he has so far shown great potential during loan spells with Virtus Lanciano and Spezia.
