The situation FC Barcelona is currently experiencing is anything but simple, but it seems to have found an unexpected solution. All thanks to Luis Enrique, former blaugrana coach, who is willing to make a move that could be key for both the present and future of the Culer club.
"Fichajes.net" has revealed that the situation of Ter Stegen could take a major turn in the coming days. PSG wants to finalize his signing, seeking a proven profile to strengthen its goal. The Asturian knows Barça's veteran goalkeeper perfectly well, having coincided with him during his time on the blaugrana bench.
According to the information, Luis Enrique believes Ter Stegen can shine at PSG due to his experience in major competitions and his ability under pressure.
Everything can change for Ter Stegen
So far, the truth is that the German has rejected several options for his departure. He has a contract until 2028 and one of the highest salaries on the squad. However, the 33-year-old goalkeeper could change his mind with the possibility of heading to the French capital.
With the World Cup just around the corner, he knows he has no chance to play at Barça since Joan García's arrival. Hansi Flick doesn't count on him and the doors for his exit are open. The situation is anything but easy, as he is injured for the next three or four months (3 or 4 months) and has a more than tense relationship with the club.
From idol to outcast
For years, Ter Stegen was an example of commitment. He never complained publicly and accepted sacrifices for the good of the team. But the passage of time and the accumulation of unfulfilled promises have undermined the relationship.
The latest episode has just been the straw that broke the camel's back. Laporta asked the goalkeeper to sign the medical report that would allow Joan García to be registered as a temporary replacement during his absence.
But Ter Stegen has refused. He didn't want to be involved in a maneuver that could have legal or tax implications and also harmed him as Barça's goalkeeper. The club has opened a disciplinary file against him, and that's when everything exploded.
Luis Enrique could now be the savior, putting an end to a bad relationship that's unlikely to improve. Ter Stegen knows he has gone from starter to the bottom of the bench, and that's what they plan to take advantage of in Paris.
