Wojciech Szczesny's days as an Arsenal player came to an end in 2017, but his commitment as a fan led him to follow their title-winning season from afar.

“I suffered a lot (during) the Champions League final. But to win the Premier League after 22 years… It’s a big relief because I’ve waited for it for a very long time and I’m very happy they built a project of probably one of the best clubs in Europe.

“When I was there, we had one season when we were on top of the league for a very long time, and we lost in the end. I felt we were the best team in the league. But we were a very young, inexperienced team, and in the end, when it mattered, we fell short.

“It still hurts because it’s the one trophy that I haven’t won in professional football that I would have loved to win… winning the Premier League with Arsenal. It’s still bugging me from the inside, but as a fan I’m very happy about what happened this year.

“Arsenal is a place where I made my dream come true. Emotionally, it’s the maximum that I believe anybody can achieve: playing for the club of your dreams. I’ve achieved the dream. It’s the peak of your career. It’s a beautiful story, although I only won three trophies with Arsenal: two FA Cups and a Community Shield.

“It will probably always be the most beautiful part of my career. The one filled with the most passion. It was also the start of my career. I was very hungry, very determined to show people that I belong at that level.”

“For the ultras in San Siro’s Curva Sud, there is only one capitano and it is not Gianni Rivera, nor is it Paolo Maldini. It’s Franco Baresi.

“Baresi went through everything with Milan in ways the aforementioned greats did not.

“The club remain indistinguishable from the Maldini dynasty, with Cesare and Paolo lifting the European Cup and, more recently, Daniel making his Serie A debut in red and black.

“But Milan and Baresi were family in more ways than one. By the time he moved to Milanello, Franco and his siblings were orphans. The club took him in and allowed the shy, taciturn boy to develop into one of Italian football’s most celebrated leaders.”

Franco Baresi, the legendary former AC Milan defender and Italy international, has passed away at the age of 66.

@JamesHorncastle wrote about Baresi for The Soccer 100, The Athletic’s definitive book on the 100 greatest players of all time.

Rimarrai per sempre il mio capitano. RIP

Grazie Franco per quello che ci hai insegnato, sul campo e fuori dal campo, con la tua leggendaria carriera.
Una bandiera è per sempre.

Ps. Aggiungo: 39 volte grazie. Gli juventini capiranno.

“This shirt belongs to a great player, I think Franco Baresi is the best as a defender. This is a memory that I will keep for the rest of my life.”

[B/R Football @brfootball]

Franco Baresi has died aged 66.

A World Cup winner with Italy and the definition of a true one-club man, spending the entirety of his 20-year career with AC Milan.

One of the greatest defenders of all time, he was a pivotal figure in the Milan side that dominated the 80s and 90s, winning 20 trophies.

A legend of the game ❤️🖤

Franco Baresi. Eternal.

[Gianluigi Buffon @gianluigibuffon]

Il 19 novembre 1995 ho esordito in Serie A contro il Milan. Avevo 17 anni e dall'altra parte c'era il capitano di quella squadra: Franco Baresi.

Per un ragazzo della mia età, trovarsi in campo contro campioni come lui era qualcosa di incredibile. Da quel giorno ho avuto ancora più chiaro cosa significasse rappresentare il calcio con classe, leadership e rispetto.

Ciao Franco. Riposa in pace.

[AC Milan @acmilan]

La Storia del Milan è in lacrime per la scomparsa di Franco Baresi. Il suo esempio e la sua profondità saranno, per sempre come la sua maglia numero 6, parte integrante e fondamentale del DNA e del cammino di tutto il Club. Le condoglianze che AC Milan porge alla famiglia tutta di Franco Baresi sono le stesse che ogni tifoso rossonero fa a sé stesso in un'ora così dura.

The entire history of AC Milan is in tears following the passing of Franco Baresi. His example and integrity will be forever etched into the Club's DNA, just as his iconic number 6 shirt is. The condolences AC Milan extends to Franco Baresi's family at such a difficult time are shared by every Rossonero, who feels this loss as their own.

[AC Milan @acmilan]

Our number 6, forever. ♾️
Ciao, Capitano ❤️🖤
