WOJCIECH SZCZESNY has opened up over being hit with a £20,000 fine for smoking in the showers at Arsenal.
But the Juventus keeper insists he was never caught in the true sense of the word and simply owned up to taking a crafty drag. SunSport revealed Szczesny was punished financially by boss Arsene Wenger after a 2-0 defeat to Southampton back in 2015.
But he took the high ground by revealing he pleaded guilty to his misdemeanour.
He told the Independent: "I never got caught. "I admitted to it when I was asked if it was me in London but the second one was bull****.
"At Arsenal I did it and held my hands up but never at Roma."
Szczesny admits he never dreamed of leaving Arsenal despite his indiscretions.
But now he looks back in the knowledge it was the right move for him and the club.
He said: "Accepting that my time with Arsenal was over was difficult because I never imagined leaving. "I supported them as a kid and I got to play for the club of my dreams, but life goes on.
"It was the right thing for me and both clubs and, while one side of me found it difficult to say it was over, the other said let's just get it done."
