The Polish international joined Juventus after being on loan at AS Roma for two seasons, having fallen out with Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger after being caught smoking in the shower.
He admitted regret with how his departure went and was emotional when discussing the exit.

Long-serving Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon is expected to remain first-choice between the sticks this season, with Szczesny replacing him next summer. He certainly has big gloves to fill.
