Nothing is going well between FC Barcelona and Marc-André Ter Stegen. Seriously injured last September, the player under contract until 2028 with Barça is pushed towards the exit.
But the player is determined not to leave! A situation which complicates the affairs of the Catalan club, which is unable to record these five new recruits due to the non-compliance with the financial fair-play imposed by the Spanish League.
While Ter Stegen was recently operated on the back and should be removed from the field for a long time, FC Barcelona counted on this absence to be able to record Joan Garcia. Indeed, the regulation of the Spanish League allows a club to register a new player if the injury of one of its players requires a distance from the land of more than five months.
Ter Stegen will not give in to the threats of Barça
For this, FC Barcelona must provide the Liga with the medical certificate of its goalkeeper so that the football body assesses the duration of the German. Problem, Marc-André Ter Stegen categorically refuses to sign his medical certificate, which prevents Barça from sending it to the Liga due to respect for medical confidentiality.
Faced with this situation, the Spanish champion decided to open a legal proceedings against his player, but this decision does not seem to make him bend. On the contrary,
Marca reveals this Thursday that the goalkeeper does not intend to give in and will not sign his medical certificate. According to him, the impossibility for Barça to record his new recruits does not concern him since the club recruited them before his back operation. The 33 -year -old remains focused on his convalescence, convinced that he will soon find his best level.
