Barça signed Szczęsny out of retirement as a free agent in the aftermath of Marc-Andre ter Stegen's knee injury a month into the 2024–25 season. After spending all of the first half of the season serving as Iñaki Peña's backup, Szczęsny took over the starting duties when the calendar turned to 2025 and never looked back.

The 35-year-old previously retired from football at the start of the 2024-25 season following the expiration of his contract at Juventus.

Barcelona have confirmed that goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has extended his deal with the club for another two years.
