Barcelona Manager Flick Advocates for Ter Stegens Copa Opportunity

Ter Stegen’s Comeback and Performance Highlighted

Recovery and Recall

After successfully undergoing surgery for his back, Marc-André ter Stegen has been brought back into the fold by the German national team coach, Hansi Flick. This comes following Barcelona’s recent attempts to transfer him during the summer.

Current Standing in the Team

The German goalkeeper has found himself relegated to the third-choice position, trailing behind Joan Garcia and Wojciech Szczesny. Despite this, team management continues to encourage him to seek a new opportunity elsewhere as the January transfer window approaches.

Notable Performance

In last night’s Copa del Rey triumph over Guadalajara, ter Stegen made his return to action, contributing to the team’s 2-0 victory. Flick commented on ter Stegen’s situation, stating:

“He has been at the club for around 12 years and now he is back.

We discussed his situation and provided him the chance to prove his return, which I believe was a positive move for him.”
