– Ter Stegen was on the pitch today, everything was fine. But we have to wait and see when he feels better. This is not the time to make decisions. We must focus on Wednesday's match [z Atletico Madryt w Pucharze Króla – red.]. We'll talk about it. There is time. It is important that Marc is making good progress and we are glad that it is already at this stage of recovery – This is how FC Barcelona coach Hansi Flick said about the situation of a German goalkeeper at the Tuesday press conference.
Marc-Andre Ter Stegen slowly returns to training after he suffered a serious knee injury at the beginning of the season and thus raises a lot of discussions on who will be the basic goalkeeper of FC Barcelona at the end of the season. Currently, it is Wojciech Szczęsny, who is doing very well and has not yet lost any meeting in the goal of the Catalan club.

The journalist of “Sport” Toni Juanmarti, who is well -oriented in the realities of FC Barcelona, shared his view of this situation. – Barca does not talk about it, but he has a problem with this situation. I think that Barcelona has a problem in this situation, because whatever he does, it will be drawn to it, “he said, referring to a possible decision to play or not play terthenem.
– In my opinion, Ter Stegen sees the possibility of playing only if Barca reached the final of the Champions League. And even if it seems complicated to me, I undoubtedly do not see him in the game before May – added Juanmarti. According to the journalist, it will be difficult to jump into the goal in a situation where the situation in the Spanish league is on the blade of the knife.
– Here I book a small percentage, taking into account the position of Ter Stegen, which until May 31 will have enough time to recover in 100 percent. Although it may come to a surprise in this matter, I do not think that he managed to pierce to the goal before mid -May – he concluded. If Juanmarti's words were confirmed, then Ter Stegen would play after the semi -finals of the Champions League, around the 35th or 36th round of La Liga.
