Wojciech Szczesny will be on the bench at Wembley when Juventus take on Tottenham.
Arsenal fans have been messaging former goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny urging his Juventus side to knock rivals Tottenham out of the Champions League.
Szczesny is Juventus’ back-up to Gianluigi Buffon, and hopes to take the legendary Italian’s place.
He is returning to North London this evening as Juventus take on Tottenham Hotspur in the Champions League.
The Pole posted a message on his Instagram page insisting he and Buffon are ready or the challenge ahead.
Szczesny has always been vocal about his love for Arsenal, telling The Independent last year that he was glad to have player for the ‘club of his dreams.’
He is still held in high regard by Arsenal supporters too, perhaps with absence making the hearts grow fonder, with his replacement Petr Cech failing to take the club to the next level.
Ahead of Juventus’ Champions League second leg decider against Tottenham, Arsenal fans responded to Szczesny’s message urging his side to KO their North London rivals.

Szczesny always seemed to enjoy the drama of playing in the North London derbies, and he will find this tough sitting on the sidelines for Juventus once again.
Tottenham will be fearsome opposition for Juventus having claimed a draw in Turin, and they are being strongly fancied to defeat the Italian champions.
