Cagliari coach Claudio Ranieri has paid tribute to Gigi Buffon.
At 45, Juventus great Buffon retired this week, while still under contract with Parma.
Ranieri said: "Gigi is a delightful boy, on a football level I have little to say because he needs no introduction.
"A locker room man, always with a smile, capable of being a leader at all times, a serious person before a champion technically."
