Wojciech Szczęsny

It's known since Arsenal he smokes and is not really professional or passionate about football. Don't care for a short term signing as GK, he'll still be better than Pena and MATS.

Interesting he gave an interview while negotiating, looks like things are going well.

New leaks again that Pena is counted as a starter, and Szcesny as backup

Hope they are lying to calm Pena, or else the club is a circus
Of course Pena is the starter, for now. Can't get the polak ready in two days and after all Pena hasn't committed any mistake. Since Pena is already registered for CL, we'll have to wait until Szcesny debuts in LL.

There might be some true to that. Szczesny is without training & condition probably since EURO 2024 ended. Pena is inferior, but conditioned.

It's a good deal and ideal competitive situation, especially for Pena. Unlike last season, when MATS was gone for few months, this time the chance is for real. If that's no motivation for Pena, then he should do the club a favor and leave.

Any reliable source that he can or can't play in the CL?

Pena will be a starter for at least a month anyway. I also think Szczesny won't be able to play CL until the knockouts (if we get there) so there will be minutes for both.

He can get up to fitness under Flick's training regime in 3-4 weeks max
