Italian Soccer Serie A Blog hosted by Anna Italia, congratulates Juventus and Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon winner of the FIFA Goalkeeper of the Year 2017. We feel so proud for this well-deserved award to great Buffon! The FIFA’s The Best Award 2017 was presented on Monday 23 October 2017 in London. The former Manchester United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel presented the award to Buffon. What a way to celebrate Buffon’s 20 years with the Italian Team! Gianluigi Buffon, Real Madrid goalkeeper Keylor Navas and Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer were the three contenders for the award.
Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo was named the ‘Best’ overall while our beloved Italy and Juventus goalkeeper Gigi Buffon won the 2017 goalkeeper award. Juventus won their 6th consecutive Scudetto with Buffon.
