A new report from SPORT has added fresh clarity to the growing uncertainty around Marc-Andre ter Stegen's future at Barcelona. Ahead of his return, the German goalkeeper is carefully assessing his next steps, and as he weighs up his options, Turkish giants Besiktas have once again emerged as a serious contender eager to give him the chance to rediscover his rhythm.
It has now been over three months since the goalkeeper underwent back surgery. Initially, Ter Stegen himself had estimated his recovery period to be around three months, setting his own timeline via social media shortly after the operation. However, that timeframe has now expired, and he has still not returned to group training, although he has resumed training on the pitch.
Chelsea are reportedly exploring a sensational loan move for Marc-Andre ter Stegen, with the Barcelona goalkeeper said to be open to a change after nearly a decade as the Catalans' undisputed No. 1. The 33-year-old German has found himself unexpectedly marginalised following Barca's decision to invest 25 million in Joan Garcia, the former Espanyol star whose rise has prompted a recalibration of the goalkeeping hierarchy at the Camp Nou.
"They have been going after him for some time. They wanted him when Bayern signed him. At that time they tried to steal Kane, but Bayern already had an agreement with the player. I heard that Al Hilal wanted to pay Harry Kane £85.5m per year if he plays there. For a three-year contract. That is not bad," added Falk.
