⚡ Interestingly, Buffon Jr. has chosen a different path from his father. Instead of playing as a goalkeeper, he is a forward for Pisa’s youth team and has already scored four goals in three matches in the Primavera league this season.

🏆 At the moment, Pisa is among the top contenders for promotion to Serie A. Under the guidance of the legendary Filippo Inzaghi, the team sits in second place in the league, a position that guarantees direct promotion to Italy’s top flight. They trail the league leaders by eight points while maintaining a three-point advantage over their closest competitor.
