“ In two weeks I might be ready, I feel good “. This is what Marc-André ter Stegen told journalists who follow FC Barcelona, as reported by Sport on Tuesday. Hit in the back in mid-November and forced to undergo surgery, the German Blaugranas goalkeeper will make his return to competition.
Ter Stegen hopes to play in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League against Napoli on February 21. He could thus play the two La Liga matches scheduled before this European clash (against Granada then Celta de Vigo).
The former Mönchengladbach player was essential to the Spanish title last year, conceding only 18 goals in 38 matches (for 26 clean sheets!). Iñaki Peña has been doing what he can in goal for FCB in recent months, but he has conceded four goals against Girona and Real Madrid and three against Antwerp in the Champions League.
