Barcelona is still in a state of tension in all directions. In addition to the controversy surrounding the “Negreira” case, the club seeks to strengthen the team in light of the financial crisis it is suffering from, in addition to the laws of fair financial play that limit its plans.
Also, Barcelona will face a special challenge, which is to maintain the basic strength of the team from the temptations that reach them every day. One of them is the most important player in Xavi’s squad this season.
Not only has Ter Stegen regained his best form, but for many he is in the best moment of his professional career. He is one of the people responsible for the incredible defensive solidity that Barcelona displays.
If he continues like this, he is on his way to breaking many more records. Because he conceded more than just one goal in a single La Liga match, and that was in the defeat against Real Madrid in October.
In the rest of the matches, he kept one clean sheet or conceded once. This explains the fact that they are the only leaders, nine points behind the second-placed team, which is the team led by Carlo Ancelotti.
In total, in 25 matches, Barcelona have conceded only eight goals, and no one has any doubts that the German international will receive the Zamora award.
At the moment, there is no argument, he is the best on the planet in his position, taking advantage of the erraticity of Thibaut Courtois and Jan Oblak, who were both not in great shape.
Ter Stegen is done with the criticism he has been subjected to as a result of his poor performances in recent seasons at the Camp Nou, and this has also caused many teams to be interested in signing him.
The clubs intend to take advantage of the delicate financial situation that Barcelona is going through, which may force Juan Laporta and Matteo Alemani to make very painful sacrifices. Among the fans of the German goalkeeper, we have Paris Saint-Germain.
Nasser Al-Khulaifi does not seem satisfied with Gianluigi Donnarumma, who does not provide the necessary security for the team, especially in big meetings, and for this reason he thought of the Barcelona star.
To try to seduce Ter Stegen and persuade him to leave Barcelona and move to the Princes’ Park stadium, following in the footsteps of Neymar and Messi, they put a blank check on the German goalkeeper’s table. In other words, they are willing to pay any price to get his services.
It remains to be seen if that will be enough, as he has always shown his desire to play the rest of his life in Spain.
