"Hansi Flick has confirmed that Marc-André ter Stegen will return to the Barcelona squad for Tuesday's Champions League match against Eintracht Frankfurt, but the coach is not changing his plans for the goalkeeper position. Speaking at a press conference on Monday, Flick had a brief but clear response to the questions about Ter Stegen's return and said that summer signing Joan Garcia will remain the team's number one shot-stopper."
""It's clear, Joan is my number one goalkeeper. Yes, [Ter Stegen] could be included in the squad against Eintracht." Reports from Catalan media also say that Ter Stegen will be the team's third goalkeeper behind backup Wojciech Szczesny, making it clear that the German will have to seek playing time elsewhere if he wants to return to action in time to earn his spot in the national team squad for the World Cup."
Hansi Flick confirmed that Marc-André ter Stegen will return to Barcelona's squad for the Champions League match against Eintracht Frankfurt but will not alter goalkeeper plans. Summer signing Joan Garcia remains the club's number one goalkeeper. Ter Stegen could be included in the matchday squad yet reports place him as the team's third-choice behind Wojciech Szczesny. Ter Stegen faces limited opportunities and may need to seek playing time elsewhere to regain match fitness and a place in the national team ahead of the World Cup. Multiple European clubs have shown January transfer interest in the goalkeeper.
