Girona Management Optimistic About Signing German International

Club’s Ambitions

The leadership of Girona is looking forward to potentially securing a deal for the German international in the current transfer window.

Ter Stegen’s Situation

Marc-André ter Stegen is keen to join a new team, especially after receiving counsel from Rudi Völler, the head of German football, stressing the necessity of consistent playtime to ensure his selection for this summer’s World Cup.

Discussions Underway

Reports indicate that a transfer to Girona is being evaluated, but financial aspects pose a hurdle.

• Loan Conditions: If ter Stegen were to join on loan, Girona would be responsible for a payment of €5 million for the remainder of the season.
• Financial Constraints: However, due to Financial Fair Play regulations, Girona can only manage between €500,000 and €750,000 of that amount.

For the time being, negotiations are ongoing, with the outcome largely dependent on Barcelona’s willingness to subsidize ter Stegen’s wages to facilitate his exit from the club.
