There is no fair play with Ter Stegen.

Marc-André ter Stegen is the last vestige of the template who won the Champions League in Berlin ten years ago. He is also one of the only three survivors of the contract renewals with deferrals that Josep Maria Bartomeu carried out in secret and treacherously before resigning in October 2020, behind the backs of the dressing room led by Leo Messi. Currently the first captain by seniority, he is the archeological figure of a team that collapsed between Anfield and Lisbon and began to rise with Xavi's La Liga, in which he was key between the sticks. At the top of Barça, legitimately, they believe that the time has come for him to say goodbye so they can look forward to a goalkeeper for the future: they have spoken about it in board meetings and in close circles with journalists. Officially, the message is that they do not want to force him to leave, but once Joan Garcia was signed There's no need to swallow the vegetables by making an airplane with your fork. pressing Ter Stegen is infinite and inelegant. Frenkie de Jong could beat him. give advice on how to approach this type of campaigns, also present on the unbearable social media. Every summer, someone is targeted to get him to jump ship, and the Dutchman, now on the verge of renewing—what a thing!—is an expert. Ter Stegen signed—already with Joan Laporta, two years ago—an extension until 2028. One small detail is not insignificant: he did so again with deferrals, Bartomeu-style. Therefore, colloquially speaking, the club must pay him a fortune, and he holds the upper hand. For now, he's already made it clear that he's convinced he'll stay at Barça. The conflict is already brewing and won't be easy to resolve, because the Blaugrana club also needs the German to leave to facilitate Joan Garcia's registration.

It is the fair play, friends! Both financially and in terms of form. Laporta's Barça, once again, is fighting against the clock, victims of its own tricks, and at the same time, has set in motion a very unpleasant machinery before sitting down face-to-face with the goalkeeper. It's true that Ter Stegen didn't play fair when he was pushing to regain his starting spot after his injury with persistent interviews, but the club should be above all this. It's fair to praise Barça's ability to anticipate Joan Garcia's potential, but Deco's intelligence is inversely proportional to that of the club's top brass in slandering Ter Stegen. off the record. Hansi, you'll have to fix it. Flick would have certainly appreciated more discretion and less mud.
