“It would be disrespectful if I didn’t take that into account” – Experienced goalkeeper comments on Barcelona’s offer

Barcelona are expected to look for a new goalkeeper shortly after it was confirmed that Marc-Andre Ter Stegen will be out for the rest of the season with the serious knee injury he sustained in Sunday’s win over Villarreal. At the moment, the player with the best chance of a move is former Arsenal and Juventus goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny.

Szczesny has reportedly already agreed to come out of retirement and join Barcelona, ​​where he would compete with Inaki Pena and Aster Astralaga for a starting place. He spoke to Sport about the situation on Wednesday.

“I have a lot of respect for Barcelona’s history. It is one of the best clubs in the world. I understand the difficult situation that has arisen for them after Marc-André ter Stegen’s injury and I think it would be disrespectful if I did not consider this option.”

Barcelona are expected to confirm Szczesny’s arrival by the end of the week and he could even be involved in the trip to Osasuna on Saturday.
