Wojciech Szczesny is expected to complete his transfer to Al-Nassr next week, bringing an end to a seven-year spell with Juventus.
The 34-year-old Polish shot stopper seemingly wasn’t keen to leave the Bianconeri this summer, but the club had different plans, agreeing to sign Michele Di Gregorio from Monza on a €4m loan deal with a €16m obligation to buy clause attached.
Szczesny was initially hesitant about the idea of joining Al-Nassr but eventually agreed to sign a two-year contract with the Saudi side worth around €19m net per season, ready to draw his seven-year spell with Juventus to a close.
Szczesny on cusp of Al-Nassr
Page 23 of today’s Tuttosport details how Al-Nassr have now agreed to sign Szczesny from Juventus for around €4m, allowing him to be taken off the books in Turin to help make space for new players.
Earlier this month, talks between the two clubs stalled but now a step forward has seemingly been made and the Juventus veteran could complete his move to Saudi Arabia next week.
40M for Szczesny, yeah right
