It is clear that Gianluigi Buffon has adapted to perfection to Paris Saint-Germain, where is the guardameta title with the permission of Alphonse Aréola, that comes tightening strong in the fight by the titularity. So well it has integrated Buffon, that when they ask after him the Balloon of Gold 2018 does not doubt in betting by a footballer of Paris Saint-Germain, although the favourites are others.

Any one would appoint to Luka Modric, Cristiano Ronaldo, Leo Messi, Antoine Griezmann or can that even until to Mohamed Salah, the one who formed part of the podium of candidates to the FIFA The Best 2018 does some weeks, remaining like third qualifier by behind Modric and Cristiano.

The case is that Buffon seems to have other preferences by the Balloon of Gold of this edition, and ensures that one of the 'covered' that well would deserve to carry it is not another that Kylian Mbappé, the one who made a big World-wide of Russia 2018 standing out even above Griezmann in the achievement of the title, although to level of clubs did not attain to win too many important titles, further of the French trophies.

His merits can see in each party on the lawn.
