Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Barcelona's captain, is undergoing back surgery and will miss three months of play. He announced his condition, expressing physical readiness but the pain he experienced. Ter Stegen's decision was not communicated to the club prior, leading to frustration amid ongoing tensions. Last season, he started only eight LaLiga matches due to injuries. His situation worsened when he was benched for the final game, causing him to miss a bonus, compounded by the challenge from new signing Joan Garcia.
Barcelona captain Marc-Andre ter Stegen will not travel on the club's pre-season tour of Asia as he will undergo back surgery, missing around three months.
Ter Stegen expressed, "Physically and athletically, I feel in very good shape, although unfortunately I am not free from pain. The quickest and safest way for me to fully recover is through back surgery."
Reports indicate that FC Barcelona was not informed in advance of Ter Stegen's decision regarding surgery, leading to frustration within the club.
The rift between Ter Stegen and Barcelona has grown after he was benched for the final match of the season, which cost him a performance bonus.
