Scott - No move for Szczesny

"Bees rule out return bid for Arsenal goalkeeper "
Brentford manager Andy Scott has ruled out making a move for young Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny.

The 20-year-old Poland international impressed while on loan at Griffin Park last season, making 28 appearances between the sticks for the Bees.

However, despite attending Brentford skipper Kevin O'Connor's recent testimonial game against Fulham, Scott told skysports.com that the Pole will not be returning to the club this season.

"Wojciech came along to watch the Fulham game as it was Kevin O'Connor's testimonial and they got on well while he was here last season," he said.

"Wojciech is more than welcome to come down whenever he can, but I think that his ambitions lie at Arsenal now and I can fully understand that considering how well he progressed here last season.

"We were very fortunate to have him on board last season and we were glad that we could contribute to his career progression, but he was simply there to watch the game."
