Veteran goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon has been offered a one-year contract extension by PSG He said: 'The club has offered me an extension, which makes me really happy. 'We will look in a few days to examine this project and see if we both believe that it is good to continue together. 'It's going well in Paris. I have exceptional life experience at 41 years old. I arrived convinced that I would be involved as a player and as a person, and I found what I came for.'

The Italian has played 24 times - although only five times in the last 13 Ligue 1 clashes - while Areola has been in goal on 30 occasions in all competitions.
