Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon has claimed that England's Joe Hart can become the best shotstopper in the world.
The two keepers come up against each other on Sunday in Kiev for their Euro 2012 quarter-final encounter.
"Together with [Manuel] Neuer and [Salvatore] Sirigu, [Hart] can become the best goalkeeper in the world," the 34-year-old told reporters.
"The difference between a normal goalkeeper and a great goalkeeper is the attention to detail, not to commit mistakes during one season."
World Cup winner Buffon has made 117 appearances for his country after making his debut in 1997.
