Pole doesn’t want AS Roma deal to be permanent
AS Roma goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has revealed his desire to return to parent-club Arsenal at the end of the season.
The Poland international is currently on a season-long loan in Italy with the Serie A side after Arsenal signed Petr Cech from Chelsea for £11million.
After Cech‘s arrival, Arsene Wenger had to make the decision of who to keep at the club, Szczesny or David Ospina.
Despite numerous clubs wanting the Colombian on a permanent deal, Wenger instead decided to loan out Szczesny with Roma striking the deal.
Although the Polish shot-stopper is enjoying first-team football again, he’s revealed that his dream is to return to Arsenal and challenge Cech for the number-one jersey at the Emirates Stadium.
Szczesny Wants Arsenal Future
“I saw Arsenal as my whole life and I do not hide that is still my dream,” he said.
“For me it is a family, I owe so much to those people that if I were to be given a chance I would play for them again.
“With Wenger there is no love or hate – he’s always been fair with me.
“Nine months is a long time in football, things can change from week to week.”
