Barcelona at odds with Marc-Andre ter Stegen over recovery time from surgery

Barcelona and Marc-Andre ter Stegen seem to be in a bit of mess right now thanks to the goalkeeper’s back injury.

Ter Stegen has raised a few eyebrows by putting out a statement to confirm he’s going under the knife and will be out for three months.

It’s unusual for a player to announce such news, rather than the club, but also no surprise given he’s been training alone since the start of pre-season.

Ter Stegen says he will be out for around three months after sugery, while it seems Barcelona have a different view.
