Incoming signing Wojciech Szczęsny’s past pro-Barcelona tweets resurface

Incoming Barcelona signing Wojciech Szczęsny made clear his admiration for some of the club’s greatest-ever players, during the early years of his playing career.

As much came by way of a series of social media posts, some of which have late this week resurfaced online.

Identified as Barcelona’s leading free agent target to replace the injured Marc-André ter Stegen, the Pole has agreed to come out of retirement, to put pen to paper on a contract at the Camp Nou through the close of the campaign.

The posts, highlighted by Diario Sport, surround the talents of two of the Catalans’ most beloved players of all-time, in Lionel Messi and Xavi:
