Juventus can challenge for every major trophy this season as Gianluigi Buffon underlines his ambitions and pledges his future to the club.

The goalkeeper believes Juve's impressive transfer campaign, that saw the arrivals of Diego, Felipe Melo and Fabio Cannavaro, will be key to kicking forward the hunt for honours.

"We have strengthened really well and we are better compared to last year," Buffon told the press.

"I want to win with this shirt, but I don't want to make useless predictions."

The Italian international has been linked with a move away from the club, but he is in no mood to read into exit stories as he shows his dedication to the Bianconeri.

"I want to stay at Juventus. I have no intention of leaving and I will stay here in future," added the shot-stopper

"I am lucky to wear this shirt. It fills me with pride. In the past I would have preferred to move, but not anymore."

The Bianconeri clash with Seongnam tomorrow night. A win will see them progress to the Peace Cup semi-final where they may face Spanish powerhouse Real Madrid.

"I would like to play Real Madrid. I am enjoying the Peace Cup and it would be fun to play them," he added.

Buffon feels the Samuel Eto'o - Zlatan Ibrahimovic deal has not made Inter any weaker.

"Inter are still very strong. They sold Ibrahimovic but replaced him with Eto'o. He is someone who scores plenty of goals. I think it was an equal exchange," added the 'keeper.

"Eto'o is a champion. He scored in two Champions League finals. Inter are not weaker."
