Szczęsny signed a new 2-year contract. I think it's the right decision and he will be useful for Barca. He performed very well last season. What I don't understand is that Szczęsny announced last season that he was retiring from football and then he came back and signed a contract with Barca. Now he'll continue for two more seasons. Was he suffering from a burnout syndrome? After he decided to retire, I think he realized that he couldn't do without football and decided to play as long as he was physically capable. It'll be interesting to watch him fight for the jersey with Joan García.
2 years look too long for Szczęsny, but i'll take it because of how low his wage. He's also experienced enough, and can become a good mentor for Garcia. That's the only reason why Barceloa extended his contract. However, it seems this confirms Ter Stegen is not a part of Barcelona's future plan.
Let's imagine if Garcia become Barcelona's main goalie, then Szczęsny as the second, will they put Ter Stegen as the third?
