Barcelona lost goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen due to a long-term injury. The team is thinking about whether to make an emergency transfer, and even though he recently retired, Wojciech Szczesny has been contacted.
Wojciech Szczesny, a former goalie for Juventus, is reportedly in negotiations with Barcelona as they explore options to replace Marc-Andre ter Stegen.
Ter Stegen damaged a tendon in his right knee during the weekend’s triumph over Villarreal, necessitating surgery and thought to be a season-ending injury.
With Inaki Pena now positioned as Barcelona’s senior goalkeeper and the untested Ander Astralaga and Diego Kochen as backups, concerns are mounting. The club is reportedly holding ’emergency’ transfer talks to explore potential replacements.
Claudio Bravo, who shared goalkeeping duties with Ter Stegen for two years and recently retired after his stint at Real Betis, has offered his services to his former club. His experience and familiarity with Barcelona could provide a valuable short-term solution while also mentoring the younger keepers. It will be interesting to see how the club navigates this situation and whether they pursue additional options in the transfer market.
