Former Arsenal star rejects Tottenham move after brutally mocking Spurs on social media

Former Arsenal star Wojciech Szczesny insisted he is not interested in a move to Tottenham Hotspur, according to a fresh report.

Reports in Italy claim the Juventus shot-stopper has rejected a move to Arsenal’s north London rivals Spurs.

Szczesny’s current deal is set to expire in the summer of 2024, though the Turin giants have the option to extend it by another year.

With Szczesny about to enter the final year of his contract, Gazzetta dello Sport claimed Spurs chief Fabio Paratici made an approach for the keeper, in an attempt to find Hugo Lloris replacement.

Indeed, the former France international has been questioned by a portion of the club’s fan base after making several costly errors this term.

Yet Szczesny has allegedly given a resounding no to the Premier League club’s advances and insisted he’s fully focused on Juve.

Szczesny mocking Spurs

Szczesny, who spent five years at Arsenal, has frequently taken to social media to mock the club’s north London rivals.

After Tottenham were beaten 5-1 by already-relegated ten-man Newcastle on the last day of the 2015/16 season, the Poland international tweeted "Spurs" with a cry-laughing and love heart emoji.

That year Spurs looked set to finish above Arsenal for the first time in Arsene Wenger's reign. They had been battling eventual champions Leicester City for the title all season.

However, the club picked up just one point from the remaining 12 available to them, gifting Leicester the title and opening the door for Arsenal fans to sneak in ahead of them.

Szczesny, who has spent that season on loan at Roma from Arsenal, admitted he could incur a fine as he posted an Instagram video in which he was singing "it's happened again, it's happened again".

Years later, when he helped knock Tottenham out of the Champions League with Juventus in March 2018, he also took to Twitter to mock their supporters.

The Pole has made 201 appearances for the Turin side, and in that time claimed three Serie A titles, two Coppa Italias and a Supercoppa Italia trophy.
