Hardly any player from FC Barcelona is reported as much as about Marc-André ter Stegen. After renewed rumors, coach Hansi Flick is now reporting.
The former national coach said at a press conference before the league start against RCD Mallorca: “The most important thing is that we talk about it together and that he can play again at his high level. He has to recover and come back, that’s the most important thing.” Flick also emphasized that it was about “that he can help the team, we are behind him.”
According to the Spanish newspaper “El Nacional”, club president Joan Laporta and sports director Deco Marc-André Ter Stegen said that he could leave the club at the beginning of next year-free of charge. Actually, the German has a contract until 2028, so a transfer fee would actually be due for him in the coming year if another club wants to sign it.
However, FC Barcelona has had financial problems for a long time. It would therefore be possible that the association would rather do without the transfer, but then saves the high salary of the 33-year-old. If you hear Flick, the tendency may be different.
In addition to Ter Stegen, the trainer has other worries. According to the newspaper “Mundo Deportivo”, ex-Bavaria striker Robert Lewandowski still has muscle complaints. In addition, Marcus Rashford and Ter Stegen’s replacement Joan García are not yet registered with the league.
Flick therefore emphasized: “For me it is a situation that doesn’t make me particularly happy. I trust the club, we have to wait until tomorrow. Last season it was already. We concentrate on what we can influence.”
