Despite the fact that most believed that Barcelona incorporated Wojciech Szczesny as the starting goalkeeper after Marc-André ter Stegen’s injury. However, the former Poland international is yet to make his debut.
However, that could be about to change. According to Sport, there is a good chance that Szczesny will be the goalkeeper for Barcelona’s Copa del Rey trip to Barbastro on January 4. The Blaugrana are pleased with their contributions so far this season, and the Cup clash will finally be some kind of reward; There is a chance he will also get playing time in the Spanish Super Cup, although that tends to go to the starting goalkeeper.
The locker room ended up very emotionally affected after the cruel defeat against Atlético de Madrid. Not even the optimistic and energetic internal words of Hansi Flick served to raise the morale of a group that could not believe what had happened. @tjuanmarti

Iñaki Peña has surprised many by maintaining his number one position in the absence of ter Stegen, but he has had the full support of Hansi Flick. The news from Catalonia is that Szczesny will retire again next summer, while Peña could be in line for a contract extension.
