Juventus fans are divided. This is how they reacted to Szczęsny’s decision: “mercenary”
Wojciech Szczęsny is about to join FC Barcelona. This is how Juventus fans reacted to the goalkeeper’s decision. Italians are divided.
Not so long ago, Wojciech Szczęsny said goodbye to Juventus fans. The Polish goalkeeper quite unexpectedly ended his career before this season and it seemed that this was the final decision.
Italian journalist about Szczęsny’s decision: I am honestly surprised
However, the situation quickly changed because FC Barcelona’s goalkeeper, Marc-Andre ter Stegen, was injured. This injury will most likely rule him out this season. Barca’s second goalkeeper is Inaki Pena, who, according to many experts, is not the best choice. Therefore, the search began and Wojciech Szczęsny appeared among the candidates.
The journalists of the Sports Channel talked about this topic with Mirko Di Natale, a journalist of “TuttoJuve”. – I am honestly surprised by the whole situation – he confessed.
– Suffice it to say that on Sunday, Spanish journalist Jorge Garcia from “Diario AS” told me about the possibility of Szczęsny moving to Barcelona, but I replied that it was impossible. And yet I have to change my mind. I think this is the best possible choice, because Wojtek explained that he wanted to retire in 2025 and it was not him who wanted to leave Juventus. I was at the stadium on Saturday and saw Wojtek, who was emotional and very confident in his decision. However, if Barcelona calls, you cannot refuse, he said.
Juventus fans are divided
The journalist was asked about how Juventus fans reacted to Wojciech Szczęsny’s decision. – They are divided. Some fully respect Szczęsny’s decision, while others claim that the Pole is a mercenary because he returned to the game for money, he said.
– But this doesn’t change one thing. If Szczęsny returns to Turin as a Champions League rival, he will receive the same applause as last Saturday, he concluded.
