Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has a deal in place with Juventus.

Calciomercato.com says the Pole has decided upon a move to Turin, despite knowing he will likely spend a year on the bench.

Szczesny's contract at the Emirates is up next year, and he would act as a back-up to Gianluigi Buffon at the Old Lady before his retirement next summer.

The 27-year-old doesn't feature in Arsenal's plans with Petr Cech set to retain his position as the club's first-choice shot-stopper.

Juve have stepped up their talks with Szczesny after seeing Gigio Donnarumma now being prepared to reconsider new contract talks with AC Milan.
