Juventus Set to Give Wojciech Szczesny New Long-Term Deal After Turning Down De Gea Opportunity

Juventus number one Wojciech Szczesny is to be handed a new contract by the Old Lady, having impressed in his first two seasons for the team.

There is more to this story, though, as it seems I Bianconeri are offering the Polish stopper a new contract having turned down the chance to sign David de Gea from Manchester United.

Originally, Szczesny had been signed as the back-up to veteran Gianluigi Buffon, but took his chance when the long-time Juve starter moved to Paris Saint-Germain and has kept the gloves ever since.
