Barcelona s goalkeeper encountered a crisis in his career: he was not in a position with his back and was absent from training together. He still wanted to stay in the team and compete for the mai

During the pre-season preparation period in 2025, Barcelona goalkeeper Ter Stegen did not appear in the team's joint training team - according to Spanish media reports, he was undergoing indoor separate training due to back discomfort. This abnormal move has pushed the "meritor goalkeeper" who has played for Barcelona for 11 years to a critical turning point in his career.

Current status: New players squeezed their living space, Ter Stegen is in an awkward situation

, Barcelona has introduced young goalkeeper Joan Garcia (23 years old) from Espanyol, who is regarded as a strong contender for "a goal in the new season". The joining of two new players,

Frick and Ter Stegen

, put Ter Stegen's main position in jeopardy. Although Barcelona coach Flick made it clear that Ter Stegen is positioned as "three goals" in the new season, he still hopes to prove his value by staying in the team to compete.

Contract and Salary: To stay in the team, you need to get the full salary. Barcelona may face economic pressure

Telstegen's contract with Barcelona will last until 2027, with an annual salary of 6.3 million euros. According to the player's salary website Capology, if he chooses to leave the team, Barcelona will have to pay the "breakup fee" for his remaining contract; and if he insists on staying in the team, Barcelona will have to pay the full salary according to the contract.

For Barcelona, this is undoubtedly a considerable expense - especially when tens of millions of euros have been invested this summer to introduce midfielders and forwards. But Ter Stegen's attitude is clear: "I came to Barcelona for competition, not for sitting on the bench."

National team prospect: In the World Cup, the main position may be threatened

The 2026 World Cup is approaching, and Ter Stegen is still the No. 1 goalkeeper of the German national team. But Nagelsmann (German coach) once publicly stated that "the goalkeeper position needs to maintain a stable game state." If Ter Stegen cannot stay in shape due to back problems, his main position may be replaced by a young goalkeeper.

Terstegen did not respond too much to this, but said that "it will recover as soon as possible and strive to catch up with the World Cup."

Future Outlook: Stay or leave? The two sides are still playing games

Telestegen and Barcelona are still in progress. Barcelona hopes that he can accept the positioning of "three goals" and contribute his experience to the team; while Ter Stegen hopes to get more opportunities to play and prove that he is still a "top goalkeeper".

For Barcelona fans, Ter Stegen's departure means the end of the "Borquetsman era" - in 2014, Barcelona introduced him from Borussia Dortmund for only 12 million euros. He played in 422 games in 11 years, helping the team win 4 La Liga championships and 2 Champions League championships. His departure is not only a personal regret, but also a "fault" in Barcelona's goalkeeper's position.

Telstegen's Barcelona career is standing at the intersection of "staying or leaving". Should I accept the "three-door" positioning to continue to stay in the team, or choose to leave the team and look for new opportunities? This is not only his personal decision, but will also affect Barcelona's goalkeeper layout in the next few seasons. The story of the
