Next week will be an important period for Marc-André ter Stegen. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The German goalkeeper needs to decide whether to undergo surgery due to problems in his back area. These issues prevented him from fully participating in pre-season training.
In any case, ter Stegen is not scheduled to travel with the "Barcelona" team to Japan and South Korea. This was reported by Mundo Deportivo.
If ter Stegen decides to undergo surgery, he will be sidelined for at least four months. In such a situation, the "Barcelona" team will find it easier to register another player, specifically Joan García.
Earlier, there were reports that "Barcelona" head coach Hans-Dieter Flick does not see ter Stegen as the main goalkeeper. This will further intensify the competition among goalkeepers within the team.
Decisions regarding ter Stegen's health and return to the team will be clarified in the coming days.
