Marc-André ter Stegen the goalkeeper of Barcelona is officially out and he had surgery because of his situation he was injured in this team.
He left the training camp of Germany and people were thinking he could come back after some time but now he is going to be out for 2-3 months after the surgery.

What we can hope for now is that the operation can run smoothly. And hopefully he can recover from his injury well. Because he is one of the best goalkeepers today. He has long been a goalkeeper for Barcelona. He has been at Barcelona since 2014. And he has achieved many achievements with Barcelona. And actually Marc-André ter Stegen has also been absent several times in the last few weeks. So Barcelona should remain fine for a while. Because there is Iñaki Peña Sotorres who also seems to be very reliable as Barcelona's current goalkeeper.

Ter Stegen is the goalkeeper I like very much, but Sotorres gives hope in goal. Ter Stegen is 31 years old and now we can expect the youngsters to play as goalkeepers in Barcelona. Of course, he can play with maximum efficiency for another 1-2 years, but Barcelona can train good young goalkeepers at this stage.

The problem with this transition is that the goalkeepers which Barcelona is trying to bring in now and give playtime, is probably not going to be as reliable as Ter Stegen. And I am not sure if Barcelona can actually afford that at this point. Because Barcelona will have to perform really well as a team if they want to successfully defend the La Liga title. And the injury situation is very bad for Barcelona right now. As a club, the last thing you want to hear after you just have been through an injury crisis is that your goalkeeper is also injured. But anyway, Barcelona cannot do anything about it. So hopefully the goalkeeper that Barcelona will play, will be able to perform well. Barcelona really seems to be unlucky this season.
