There’s no chance of first choice Marc-Andre ter Stegen going anywhere, but back-up Jasper Cillessen is expected to leave in search of regular game time.
He’s been linked with a move to Portuguese side Benfica, but the latest reports from Portugal suggest his price may be a problem.
Cillessen has a release clause of €60m in his current contract, and while Barcelona are said to be willing to accept €25m, Benfica are not able to go that high.
