Barcelona's goalkeeper and captain Marc-Andre ter Stegen is set to undergo knee surgery after suffering a ruptured patella tendon, causing his exit from the match against Villarreal.
Ter Stegen, with over 400 appearances for Barcelona since 2014, injured his right knee during a routine play, with the club stating no recovery timescale has been set yet.
Barcelona's triumph over Villarreal, with a score of 3-1, keeps the team at the top of La Liga, widening their lead over Real Madrid to four points.
The club plans to release further updates post-surgery, as the impact of Ter Stegen's injury on their season will be closely monitored.
