Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has expressed his willingness to come out of retirement to help Barcelona in the wake of first-choice keeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen's season-ending injury. Ter Stegen, who underwent surgery for a ruptured patella tendon, could be out for the rest of the season and Barcelona may turn to Szczesny as a replacement. The Polish player retired from international football in 2019 but is now keen to make a comeback and support his new team.
After retiring from professional football earlier in the season, former Juventus goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny has agreed to come out of retirement to join Barcelona as they face an emergency in their goalkeeping department. The Polish international, who was previously the first-choice goalkeeper at Juventus, retired after mutually terminating his contract with the club. However, the 31-year-old will now don the Barcelona jersey after reaching an agreement with the Spanish giants, rejecting bigger offers to retire at the end of the season.
After initially announcing his retirement in August, goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has had a change of heart and is set to join Barcelona on a short-term deal. The 34-year-old believes it would be disrespectful to not help the Spanish club in their time of need after goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen suffered a serious injury. This surprising move comes as Sky Sports commentator claims Chelsea's £54 million player may already regret joining the club and that David Beckham was "emotional" about firing his close friend of 31 years.
After announcing his retirement from football, former Arsenal and Juventus goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny has received an offer from Barcelona to come out of retirement and join the La Liga giants. The move comes after Barcelona's first-choice keeper Marc-André ter Stegen suffered a serious knee injury and is expected to be out for the next seven months. Szczęsny, who has won three Serie A titles with Juventus, sees this as a great opportunity to return to the field and help Barcelona in their Champions League campaign. This could make him the highest profile Premier League player to comeback from retirement since Paul Scholes.
