Barcelona is a very funny club, What's this I'm seeing. From the table of Fabrizio, he just reported few minutes ago that Barcelona has given back Ter Stegen his captain armband back after he agreed to signed the "authorisation for the clubs medical services to process medical report to La Liga". They retrieved the armband simply because he didn't do what they wanted and now that he has agreed, they are giving it back to him.
I think is a strategy to still keep him in the team Ter Stegen is one of Barcelona oldest player and goalkeeper but I believe it's wrong to mandate a player to do what is not in their mind maybe the reason why he accepted to their terms and conditions probably he may see it as a letting down been the oldest player in the team and some one who he has been before in the club will be putting on the club armband as their captain so i think he never wanted to miss out as the team captain.
