Ter Stegen Out, Garcia In: Barcelona's Goalkeeping Shakeup
Update: 2025-12-08
Description
Barcelona manager Hansi Flick has appointed Joan García as the new starting goalkeeper, replacing Marc-André ter Stegen. Ter Stegen, who recently recovered from back surgery, may be on the bench for an upcoming Champions League match. The decision comes after a period of tension between Ter Stegen and the club, including a dispute over his medical records. Flick admitted that communication could have been better, but emphasized that García was always the planned starter. Ter Stegen is now considered the third-choice goalkeeper, and the club is committed to supporting his return to top form. The future of Ter Stegens career, including a potential move in January, remains uncertain.
