Ter Stegen's return to the team is still uncertain

Germany national team head coach Julian Nagelsmann shared his thoughts on the chances of goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen, who is sidelined due to injury, participating in the 2026 World Cup. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

Currently, ter Stegen is undergoing rehabilitation due to an injury behind his knee. This was reported by euro-football.ru.

According to coach Nagelsmann, the door is not closed for the goalkeeper yet, but since his injury is serious, a long time will be required for recovery. Therefore, the coaching staff will have to pay special attention to this situation.

If the recovery process goes successfully, ter Stegen's return to the national team cannot be ruled out. It is known that ter Stegen spent the first part of the 2025/2026 season at the Barcelona club.

However, during the winter transfer window, the 33-year-old goalkeeper moved on loan to Girona. His condition after the injury remains under the supervision of specialists.

For this reason, it is currently difficult to give a definite opinion about his future. The Germany national team coaching staff continues to closely monitor the goalkeeper's recovery process.
