Wojciech Szczesny confirmed his retirement from football at the age of 34, after he decided not to sign a contract extension with Serie A side, Juventus. There are reports that the reason why the Polish goalkeeper is looking at coming out of retirement is to replace Barcelona’s Marc-Andre ter Stegen, who suffered an injury in the league game against Barcelona.
There are some unconfirmed reports that Wojciech Szczesny’s decision is because of his relationship with Barcelona striker and fellow Polish star Robert Lewandowski, while he is well-known to Flick’s staff following his experiences in European football.
