Juventus great Gigi Buffon says Yann Sommer has been the best goalkeeper in Serie A this season.

Sommer helped Inter Milan to win the Scudetto in his first season in Serie A this term.

Buffon said at an awards function last night: "For the goals conceded you can't help but say Sommer.

"For many it was a surprise, for me however it was a confirmation, in the sense that he is a very reliable goalkeeper. And then Szczesny also did very well.

"As for the Italians we have a forge and a reservoir that gives us hope, from Donnarumma on down we are largely covered."
