More than 40 years ago, Milan's legendary goalkeeper Albertosi helped Milan win the Serie A championship in the 1978/79 season, and he turned 40 the year he won the championship.
The other two were from Juventus. Zoff and Buffon won the Serie A championship in 1981/82 and 2017/18 respectively. They were both 40 years old at that time, and Buffon won the Serie A championship again at the age of 42 in the 2019/20 season.
