Wojciech Szczesny landed, on Monday morning, at terminal number 4 of Malaga airport. The cameras of 'Jijantes' captured him while he was talking on the phone and entering the offices of the enclosure on the Costa del Sol. Over the next few hours, he will arrive in Barcelona, where he will sign a one-season contract to come out of retirement to replace Ter Stegen.

Hansi Flick's first-choice goalkeeper, Marc-Andre ter Stegen, ruptured the patellar tendon in his right knee during the matchday 6 of La Liga between Villarreal and Barcelona. Although his coach put his faith in the youth product Inaki Pena, the sports management has agreed, in the absence of official confirmation, the signing of Wojciech Szczesny, who, this summer, had announced his retirement after the end of his contract at Juventus and the dispute of the European Championship.
On Monday morning, just eight days after his German counterpart's injury, he was spotted at Malaga airport's Terminal 4. The Andalusian complex has five different ways for the arrival of travelers and this is the executive. It has three floors and an extension of 1,800 square meters to safeguard the privacy of users. The cameras of 'Jijantes' captured the presence of the Pole and echoed it in their social networks.
He is expected to sign a one-season contract in Barcelona, where he hopes to earn his place ahead of Inaki Pena. It has already been leaked that, in conversation with his compatriot Robert Lewandowski, he made it clear to him that he would only agree to return to action if he was guaranteed an important role. He is aware that this is his chance to return to the top of world football and play in the Champions League.
Understandably, Szczesny does not see himself in a secondary role, as he has never taken one, at least in the long term, in his entire career. Since Arsenal signed him from the Legia Warsaw academy, he has always been a starter at his destinations, which are, apart from the Gunners, Brentford, Roma and Juventus. Both as a Bee and as a 'Giallorossi', he played on loan. The 'Vecchia Signora' paid 12.2 million euros for him in July 2017.
