Wojciech Szczesny, at 34 years old, is at a crossroads regarding his continuity at FC Barcelona. The Polish goalkeeper has been a key player in the team's good performance this season, with an outstanding record of 16 matches played, 14 wins, only two draws, and 16 goals conceded. However, his future remains uncertain.

The goalkeeper recently acknowledged in statements to Eleven Sports that he will soon have to make a decision about the direction of his career. "The time is approaching to define my future, but right now, all my attention is on the upcoming commitments. It is crucial to maintain concentration and continue performing at the highest level," he commented.

Barcelona wants the Polish goalkeeper to stay

Szczesny has expressed his gratitude to Barcelona for the treatment he has received since his arrival. Additionally, he highlighted how special it has been for him to be part of the Blaugrana team, emphasizing the way football is enjoyed at the club. "I had never experienced anything like this in my career. Here, football is lived with contagious joy, and that is transmitted both on and off the field," he stated.

The club believes that his continuity would be positive, and both the sports director, Deco, and the coach, Hansi Flick, have shown their willingness for the goalkeeper to stay another year at Camp Nou. Now, the final decision lies with Szczesny, who will have to decide whether to extend his time in Barcelona or, on the contrary, choose to hang up the gloves and end his professional career.
