Ter Stegen, this is very serious

Marc-André Ter Stegen, who was taken off injured against Villarreal this Sunday, is seriously injured.

The image is terrible: Marc-André Ter Stegen leaving the field on a stretcher, after screaming in pain, on the ground, in his penalty area.

After a catch of the ball in the air against Villarreal this Sunday in the context of the 6e La Liga matchday, the Barça goalkeeper was seriously injured.

A back problem was initially feared, but the verdict was even worse since the German goalkeeper has a patellar tendon injury – which will certainly require surgery.

Already the victim of two serious injuries to his right knee in 2020 and 2021, Marc-André Ter Stegen could face seven to eight months of convalescence.
