Wojciech Szczesny was exposed to football and goalkeeping at a very young age. His father, Maciej, was a goalkeeper for the Polish national team at the beginning of the 1990s. It’s a position Wojciech currently holds, having been Poland’s first-choice keeper for some years now. His career began in the youth teams of his hometown club Legia Warsaw before he swapped the Polish capital for London and Arsenal at a very young age. After learning the ropes in the Gunners' reserve set-up, manager Arsene Wenger promoted him to the first team for the 2009-10 season. His debut in the Premier League arrived in December 2010 against Manchester United. Another baptism of fire followed in the Champions League in February 2010, when he made his competition debut against Pep Guardiola's Barcelona.   He secured the No. 1 jersey at Arsenal the following season and straightaway found himself at the center of the action against Udinese in the Champions League qualifying rounds. His save against an Antonio Di Natale penalty in the return leg in Italy helped win the tie and confirmed him as undroppable for the rest of the season. Over the next few seasons, Wojciech experienced many highs and a few lows while confirming himself as a top-quality goalkeeper. His 100th appearance in the Premier League came in January 2014. Following the arrival of Petr Cech to Arsenal during the summer transfer window in 2015, Wojciech joined Roma on loan in search of regular game time.
