Marc-André Ter Stegen is already back in Barcelona. This is the latest news about it. He returned from Bordeaux where he was operated on the back by Professor Amélie Léglise. While his teammates continue their preparation in Asia (they have largely dominated Seoul FC yesterday in friendly, 7-3), the German porter begins his convalescence. He also awaits news from his club, which is trying to extend his recovery period in order not to register him with La Liga in this first part of the season. This would free up the wage bill to enter the nails of financial fair play.
The divorce between the goalkeeper and the management is widely started. His injury comes at worst moments for both parties. Barça cannot part with it in the form of a loan or a transfer, and it cannot revive elsewhere. He still targets a holder's place with the Mannschaft during the next World Cup. In his press release, Ter Stegen announced an absence of three months, which the Blaugranas, preceded in their communication, did not appreciate at all. The German would think of his personal interests before those of the team and withdraw the captain's armband for him.

He immediately displays his support for Ter Stegen.

Torres: “I think Ter Stegen will be the captain»»
This is the case of Frenkie de Jong, one of the five official captains after Ter Stegen and Araujo but in front of Raphinha and Pedri. “”For me, Marc is the captain of the team, like last season.
