Barcelona Agrees One-Year Deal with Szczesny to Replace Injured Ter Stegen


Here Is The Easy Money-Making Trick Everyone Is Talking About! Learn More Here!

Wojciech Szczesny is set to join Barcelona as an emergency replacement goalkeeper following an agreement with the club.

The Polish shot-stopper announced his retirement following the expiration of his contract with Juventus.

Ter Stegen was stretchered off the field after sustaining a torn patellar tendon in his right knee during a match against Villarreal.

The injury is reportedly set to keep him out for the rest of the season.

Following the injury, Barcelona’s options for replacing their goalkeeper were limited due to transfer regulations that prevented clubs from signing players outside of the transfer window except free agents.

Szczesny emerged as one of the top candidates, along with former Real Madrid goalkeeper Keylor Navas.

A deal has now been struck to bring the former Juventus and Arsenal goalkeeper out of retirement on a one-year contract.

The former Arsenal goalkeeper is set to receive up to 80% of ter Stegen’s salary, which is set at £7.5 million.

A medical examination in Spain is scheduled soon before Szczesny joins Flick’s squad for the remainder of the season.
