Juventus goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has welcomed Gigi Buffon back to the club.
Their roles have reversed since Buffon's return from PSG.
The Pole said, "It's wonderful that Gigi Buffon has returned. I had the best goalkeeper in the world, Alisson Becker, as my understudy at Roma and now I have the best goalkeeper of all time backing me up at Juventus. I learned a lot from Gigi and we are friends. He is as enthusiastic as a kid and I'm sure he'll play a lot this season."
On coach Maurizio Sarri's methods, he added: Compared to Max Allegri, we work a lot more with the ball and we defend differently, with a higher line to press the opposition. It's going to be a hard-fought game on Saturday and it's always difficult in those head-to-head clashes, even if we often end up winning. Here's hoping that's what happens again this weekend.
It will be a tough and very balanced league, as Inter, Napoli, Roma and Lazio have really reinforced."
