Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny was almost in tears when asked about how he felt after leaving Arsenal in his first Juventus press conference, as reported by Daily Star.
The goalkeeper was asked how it felt to leave the Gunners after spending such a huge part of his career with the club.
“It is a difficult question because I spent 11 years at…” said Szczesny as his eyes began to water.
The goalkeeper then gestured as if to say he could not continue with that question but he took the time to compose himself before moving on with the press conference.
The shot-stopper fell out of favour at the Emirates after the Gunners signed Petr Cech in 2015 and was eventually loaned out to the Serie A with AS Roma for two seasons, where he played very well and impressed, resulting in a to Juventus.
The Polish international has completed a £10 million move to the Turin club but will always have a special place in his heart for Arsenal, who he dreamed of playing for as a child.
The goalkeeper had a special bond with the fans and is also very active on social media which has made him a fan favourite among supporters and is well known for indirect digs at rivals Tottenham Hotspur.
