Szczesny and Juventus part ways

Wojciech Szczesny and Juventus part ways after seven seasons together, with the two parties agreeing to a mutual termination of their contract.

It was July 2017 when Tek, as he has come to be known, first walked through the Juventus doors – having had his first taste of Italian football with a two-year loan at Roma – arriving in Turin from London side Arsenal.

From that day on, there was an instant spark between Tek and the Bianconeri faithful: smiles, passion and, above all, solid performances between the posts.

The now 34-year-old made 252 appearances in the Juventus jersey, 200 of them in Serie A: with this last milestone, he became the seventh foreign player to reach the 200-appearance mark in our colours. Tek earned 100 clean sheets, saved nine penalties and had an impressive 73% save percentage rate, which placed him first in Serie A in this category since his arrival in Turin. In total, the Poland international lifted eight trophies in his seven years in Bianconero: three Italian league titles, three Italian Cups and two Italian Super Cups.

Tek will always be remembered as a dedicated player and a man who wore our jersey with pride and professionalism.

Thanks for everything Tek, and good luck for the future!
