A goalkeeper is not high on Barcelona’s list of transfer priorities as matters stand, especially given that they only signed Joan Garcia last summer.
The Spaniard arrived and took over as the club’s first-choice goalkeeper and even remained rock-solid in goal last season. He was, in fact, one of the driving forces behind the team’s success.
His arrival relegated Marc-Andre Ter Stegen to a fringe role at the club, especially given the German’s issues with form and fitness.
Heading into next season, Barcelona are looking to move the captain out of the club, and will count on Szczesny as their backup option after Garcia.
