5 players who have played for both Arsenal and Juventus

#4 Wojciech Szczesny

Szczesny is a Polish goalkeeper who played for Arsenal from 2009 to 2017. He was signed by the Gunners in 2009 as they were then looking for a long-term replacement for Jens Lehmann.

The glove man managed to become their first-choice goalkeeper and played his role in their FA cup triumphs in 2013-14 and 2014-15. He failed to win any league title with the Gunners though. He appeared in 153 matches for Arsenal in total.

He spent a couple of seasons with Roma on loan from 2015 to 2017. The 28-year-old was signed by Juventus in 2017 and has been playing for them since. He remains their first-choice goalkeeper and has already won one Serie A title with them.

Szczesny is a brilliant shot-stopper and strong in the air too. However, he does not quite have a commanding presence inside the penalty box and remains a bit vulnerable while defending set-pieces.
