🔵🔴 Official: Szczęsny Signs Contract Extension with Barcelona Until 2027
In a surprising move that has caught many fans off guard, Wojciech Szczęsny has extended his contract with FC Barcelona until 2027, solidifying his future at the Camp Nou for the next two seasons.
The experienced Polish goalkeeper, previously linked with a return to Serie A, has instead committed his long-term future to Hansi Flick’s project in Catalonia. Despite speculation surrounding Barcelona’s goalkeeping department, the club has shown full confidence in Szczęsny’s leadership, shot-stopping ability, and dressing room presence.
The 34-year-old arrived from Juventus and has quickly become a steady and reliable figure between the posts. With Marc-André ter Stegen facing intermittent injury concerns last season, Szczęsny’s performances have been crucial in maintaining stability at the back.
🧤 Szczęsny’s new deal runs until June 2027, with an option for a further year, and includes a release clause reported to be in line with Barcelona’s financial strategy under La Liga’s FFP regulations.
Sources close to the club indicate that Flick views Szczęsny as a key mentor for the next generation of keepers, while also providing elite competition for Ter Stegen heading into a demanding 2025/26 campaign.
Barcelona fans can breathe easy — the goal is in safe hands. 🧱🔐
