Concerns Mount for Barca as Ter Stegen’s Return in Doubt for Atletico Madrid Clash
RAC1 reports suggest that the likelihood of Marc-Andre ter Stegen taking the goalkeeping position against Atletico Madrid is diminishing. The German goalkeeper is still not feeling fit enough to play, with just two training sessions remaining before the crucial matchup.
Although Ter Stegen was present at the Barca facilities on Thursday, he hasn’t fully participated in team training, signaling his ongoing struggle with back pain. The 31-year-old has been sidelined for several weeks, and Inaki Pena, who delivered an impressive performance against Porto, is anticipated to continue as his substitute in the upcoming game against Atletico Madrid.
With the clash against Atletico looming on Sunday, December 3, Barcelona faces uncertainty regarding the availability of their first-choice goalkeeper. The article highlights the challenges surrounding Ter Stegen’s return and the potential impact on the team as they prepare for this crucial La Liga encounter.
