Buffon to Chelsea

Juventus goalkeeper Gianlugi Buffon could be on his way to Chelsea as a replacement for Petr Cech, who is likely to miss the rest of the English Premiership season with a serious head injury sustained in last Saturday's match against Reading.

Back-up keeper Carlo Cudicini was also concussed in the same game and was forced to sit out Chelsea's mid-week Champions League win over Barcelona.

Buffon is presently playing in Serie B following his side's demotion to Italy's second tier following a corruption scandal at the club.

Italy's 28-year old keeper is considered one of the best in his position in the world.
