[Saba Sports News] According to Polish media reports, recently retired Polish star Wojciech Szczesny seems to be making new moves as there are rumors that he will soon join La Liga club Barcelona to replace the injured Marc-Andre ter Stegen. It is reported that Szczesny’s original contract with Juventus was set to expire in June 2025; if he changes his retirement decision and plays professionally before then, he would need to pay Juventus a fee. Previous reports indicated that Szczesny has reached a compensation agreement with Juventus. Media speculation suggests that Barcelona’s choice of Szczesny may be influenced by his national teammate Robert Lewandowski. For Szczesny, the opportunity to wear Barcelona’s jersey and play alongside Lewandowski at the club is highly attractive. Additionally, although Szczesny has announced his retirement, he may still desire to challenge himself in the later stages of his career and showcase his skills on the top stage. Barcelona, being one of the best clubs in the world, offers him such an opportunity.
