Gianluigi Buffon Biography – Preview - For World Cup keeper Gianluigi Buffon, there's little that could still impress him in the game he's been involved in for what seems like an eternity. Deemed by many as the most complete soccer goalkeeper of our times, a Buffon biography was inevitable on my site, despite the fact that it's a lot harder for a goalkeeper to reach the same levels of fame as a field player.Gianluigi Buffon Biography – Abilities - Usually, it's said that a tall goalkeeper will have softer reflexes, although making up for them through sheer size, whereas a shorter goalkeeper will be more agile. If there was ever an exception to strengthen the rule, Gianluigi Buffon owns copyright for it.

Being a tall goalkeeper (6 feet 4 inches), Gigi, as he is called by his teammates, has the hands of a pickpocket and the agility of a gymnast. His lighting fast reflex saves as well as his gravity-defying jumps for the ball earned him the heart of millions across the World.

What truly makes Buffon stand out of the crowd (as there are other soccer keepers with good stature and fast reflexes) is his ability to give confidence to his teammates. Although mistakes are inevitable for a soccer keeper, Buffon reduces that error chance to a minimum, being, for my opinion, the most reliable keeper of today.
Gianluigi Buffon Biography – Parma - Born in a family of athletes, with his mother being a discus thrower, his father a weight lifter and his two sisters volleyball players, Gianluigi Buffon took up on soccer, soon getting his first professional contract at age 17, from Parma FC.

 Being sent straight into the hells of Serie A, one of the hardest leagues to play in if you're a goalkeeper, Gianluigi Buffon proved to have a strong mind and a strong body and quickly earned a pinned down first squad position.
