Wojciech Szczęsny close to FC Barcelona? This is really happening!
FC Barcelona was supposed to contact Wojciech Szczęsny. This is due to ter Stegen’s injury. This could really happen.
Barcelona’s last 5-1 victory against Villarreal FC resulted in a serious injury to goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen. Tests confirmed that he suffered a kneecap injury, which may rule him out until the end of the season. “Examinations conducted on the first team player, Marc ter Stegen, confirmed that he had a complete rupture of the patellar tendon in his right knee. On Monday afternoon, the player will undergo surgery, and new information will be published after its completion,” we read.
FC Barcelona is looking for a successor to ter Stegen
The Spanish media began to speculate about the German’s potential successor, as it is believed that Inaki Pena is not a good enough player to provide FC Barcelona with safety at the back.
After the transfer window closes, clubs can only sign free players. There are not many such players, but one name in particular caught the media’s attention. This is, of course, Wojciech Szczęsny, who unexpectedly ended his career after leaving Juventus.
Shocking news! Barca contacted Szczęsny
As it turns out, media pressure and the Pole’s reputation made the club contact the goalkeeper. This information was provided by Tomasz Włodarczyk from matchyki.pl and Fabrizio Romano.
“Szczesny, who has just finished his career, stands out among the available players. According to our information, Barcelona actually made contact with the Pole. However, it is too early to talk about the outcome of these talks,” we read on the website.
The Italian, in turn, added more information on this subject. “Barcelona contacted Wojciech Szczęsny’s agents, CAA Stellar, to discuss potential terms. Szczęsny announced his retirement this summer, but Barca wants to understand his situation,” we read.
Fabrizio Romano informs that Wojciech Szczęsny is not the only option for FC Barcelona. “Keylor Navas and one other candidate remain on the list,” we read on Twitter.
Catalans say Robert Lewandowski “is willing to do anything”
As reported by the Catalan “Sport”, outside the club, Robert Lewandowski, who has very good contact with Wojciech Szczęsny, also got down to work.
“Szczesny and Lewandowski are close friends, and the Barcelona player would love to have him at the club, so he is also willing to do everything to convince him,” we read.
