According to “Varzesh3,” Wojciech Szczęsny’s move to Barcelona was one of the biggest surprises of the season. The Polish goalkeeper, who had retired from football, joined Barcelona after Marc-André ter Stegen’s severe injury. Initially, Szczęsny was supposed to be a backup for Iñaki Peña, but he gradually took his place and, with his solid performances, became the first-choice goalkeeper.

He was brought in as an emergency solution to compensate for ter Stegen’s injury, but now, with ter Stegen’s imminent return in the final stages of recovery, discussions about his position have intensified. Szczęsny said this week: “If ter Stegen returns and the coaches trust him, I have no problem with that.”

In one of the birthday celebration photos, Robert Lewandowski’s wife is seen next to Szczęsny. In the photo she shared, Szczęsny is wearing a hat that says “Smoker.” This joke refers to Szczęsny’s smoking habit, which has been observed many times, and even his teammates tease him about it.
