Viewant of Barcelona, Marc-Andre Ter Stegen, was told that he must be the number one at club level to guarantee a starting point at the 2026 World Cup. It flows the pressure on the 33-year-old, who operated on his back surgery on Tuesday.
Ter Stegen is forced to undergo surgery on his back, which comes to him in a difficult time, while seeing how Barcelona tries to dispel him as number one, after the signing of Joan Garcia. Hansi Flick told Ter Stegen that he will be their third-choice keeper, but he had sworn to fight for his place, with three years left over his deal.
In the meantime, one of Barcelona's negotiating ships with which he could convince him to make him bank, with the 33-year-old desperate to play the World Cup 2026 with Germany, who had been behind Manuel Neuer for years. But in Germany, Bild reports that Bayern Munich -Veteran Manuel Neuer could return to the international duty to play in the US if he is asked, as doubts about Teregen.
His injury makes his route to the number one place in the US, Canada and Mexico. Hoffenheim -goalkeeper Oliver Baumann is also a candidate to compete next summer to the number one place, and he gets a chance in the remaining luminaires of Germany in 2025.
Speaking with the German press, however, Germany manager Julian Nagelsmann stated that, for his number one place to be retained, he had to play regularly in Barcelona.
“He is our number one when he is healthy and he is number one in his club. In my mind I know that Marc will return in December, he will play both games in March, also in June, and then he will compete in the World Cup.”
“We have many good ideas and solutions,” he answered when he was asked if that scenario was not abandoned.
