Barcelona to sign a replacement for Ter Stegen

The worst predictions at Barcelona have been confirmed. Ter Stegen is suffering a ruptured tendon in his right knee and will be out for at least eight months, which means he will miss the rest of the season.

A serious setback for his coach Hansi Flick. In addition, both the board and the coach consider that counting on just Inaki Pena and the academy players for the rest of the season is a reckless decision.

Something that, according to 'Marca', has already made the board decide to sign a replacement. The coach and Deco have already met on Monday morning to agree on the direction to take, as the profile to be chosen is not yet defined.

It should be remembered that Barcelona can only sign players who are without a team, so the list is even shorter. Although the intention is to bring in a goalkeeping reinforcement immediately, they are not ruling out waiting until January.

Keylor Navas and Claudio Bravo on the horizon

There are not many top-level goalkeepers who are without a team, although there are two who stand out above the rest: Keylor Navas and Claudio Bravo. The Chilean goalkeeper said he would be willing to return from retirement for the Catalan side: "If Barcelona call me, I'll be ready to come out of retirement."

Another option that has been put on the table is Keylor Navas. The Costa Rican would be willing to listen to Barcelona. He has been without a club since leaving Paris Saint-Germain last summer.

Jordi Masip, Karius, Edgar Badia, Tomas Vaclik and Alexandre Letellier, among others, are also goalkeepers who are without a team and could be an option. For the moment, everything is hypothesis and nothing is taken for granted in the team.
