Arsenal look set to hold goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny tied to the club for an extra season, with studies from Italy stated that the Polish stopper will likely be loaned out to Roma for an extra season as a substitute than a permanent transfer being agreed.
The 26-yr-ancient joined the Gunners as a teenager a full decade ago, spending three seasons as the club's main stopper earlier than being ousted by using David Ospina across the turn of 2015, and went out on mortgage to Roma when Petr Cech arrived that summer season.
The two teams are closing in on a deal a good way to extend that mortgage deal by means of one more season, keeping Szczesny tied to the Gunners in case they want the option of utilising him to switch Petr Cech if the 34-yr-historical's age starts to meet up with him.
The loan spell will supply Szczesny a threat to continue improving himself with first-group soccer instead than stagnating in the Arsenal reserves or on their bench - a reality which used to be now not lost on the Pole when speakme to Italian newspaper Il Tempo on the finish of last month.
Talking after serving to Roma to a 3rd location finish in Serie A, he mentioned: "i know the place i'll play subsequent year, but I cannot expose it but. If I keep at Roma, it is going to be an possibility to grow and support even more. If I return to Arsenal, i'm going to make use of my expertise in Italy.
"I learnt extra in four months under Spalletti than in 10 years in England. He puts numerous value on important points and wishes the goalkeeper to be capable to play the ball along with his feet."
