Barcelona Sign Wojciech Szczesny To Replace Injured Ter Stegen

Barcelona have officially announced the signing of goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny following Marc-Andre ter Stegen’s long-term injury.

Szczesny, who had retired earlier this summer, has been persuaded to return to action and will join the club for the remainder of the 2024-25 season.

EDITOR’S PICKS

The Polish shot-stopper has signed a contract with Barcelona until June 2025 after Ter Stegen was sidelined due to a severe knee injury.

The injury occurred during Barcelona’s La Liga match against Villarreal last month, where they secured a 5-1 victory.

Ter Stegen was stretchered off the field in tears, and medical evaluations later revealed a complete rupture of the patella tendon in his right knee.

The official statement from Barcelona read, “FC Barcelona and Wojciech Szczęsny have reached an agreement for the goalkeeper to join the Club until 30 June.”

Hansi Flick’s got back to winning ways with a thumping 5-0 victory over Young Boys in the Champions League on Tuesday.

They will next face Alaves on Sunday in La Liga, with Szczesny now set to rival Inaki Pena for a starting spot in the team.
