Szczesny reveals why he swapped Arsenal for Juve

The Pole had spent the last two years of his career out on loan in Italy with AS Roma and agreed a more permanent switch to the country this summer, joining Juve in a £13.5m deal.

Szczesny was wanted by a number of sides and his decision to move to Turin surprised many, given that he was never going to be anything more than back-up to Gianluigi Buffon in the short term.

Speaking to 'Mediaset Premium', Szczesny has revealed that his decision to join Juve was fuelled by his desire to win.

'I came here because I need to win everything. I chose Juventus for their winning mindset. Every day in training I feel stronger and more ready to play for this club,' he explained.

'It seemed a normal choice to me, when Juve call you, you have to go. When you play for Juventus the goal is always to win everything, and it's no different this year.'

Szczesny has made just two appearances for the Italian champions so far this season but did keep clean sheets on both occasions.
