Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon has declared he has no interest in ever linking up with Inter.

The Azzurri No.1 has been linked with football away from the Stadio Olimpico after nine years of service with the Old Lady.

Milan and Manchester City have both been reported as possible suitors, but Inter are understood to be on the lookout for a keeper to challenge Julio Cesar for a starting role.

And while Buffon did not mention the first two clubs, or even his future at Juventus, he was very firm in his assessment of the Serie A champions to Tuttosport: "One thing I can say with certainty: I will never go to Inter."

Buffon, who cost Juventus €49.2 million, is believed to be currently valued by the Turin-based side near the €30m mark.
