FC Barcelona officially presented goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny, who will replace Marc-André Ter Stegen, who is out due to injury.

The Polish player will be with the Catalan team until next summer.

The 34-year-old goalkeeper had already officially announced his retirement, but he couldn't ignore Barcelona's offer:

"I am very proud to be in this club and I am ready for this challenge! Robert Lewandowski was the first person to call me last week..."

"It took me some time to make a decision. At first, I wasn't sure if I was ready to play, but family members and friends told me... If you refuse Barcelona's offer, you will be very foolish."

I agree with them because Barcelona is a fantastic club.

Currently, FC Barcelona is leading in the Spanish championship.
