As: Teshi is unwilling to send someone to accompany her for surgery, and Barcelona cannot release details of the injury without permission

According to the Ass newspaper, Ter Stegen does not want anyone from the Barcelona club to accompany him to have surgery.

The media revealed that the German goalkeeper will undergo lumbar surgery in Bordeaux on Tuesday, and the German goalkeeper chose the same expert, Dr. Amelle Leglis of France, who had operated on the same part two years ago. He announced in advance that he would be on standby for three months, preventing the club from enforcing the long-term injury clause.

This injury and surgery are happening against the backdrop of the open struggle between Ter Stegen and Barcelona. It should be noted that the club has signed Joan Garcia with the goal of making him the main goalkeeper, which opens the door for the Germans to leave this summer.

However, Terstegen has always been reluctant to leave the team and even expressed confidence in competing for the position. The situation also did not ease after he met Flick before the start of the preseason. Instead, the situation became more tense.

A few days later, the player announced in advance in a social media statement that he had undergone back surgery after consulting several experts, and the expected quit was three months. This period is not enough if the club wants to enforce the long-term injury clause and use its 80% salary to register other players. The club responded immediately, and it was revealed that the player had no right to announce the injury time and said he was considering depriving his captain of his armband: the jersey number has been deprived of the preseason, and Joan Garcia wore the No. 1 jersey in the first friendly match against Kobe Victory Ship of the Tour. Although Frick emphasizes that this is temporary and specific.

According to the Ass, Ter Stegen does not want anyone from the club to accompany him to Bordeaux, which further demonstrates the continued tension between the two sides. The moment of declaration will follow after the operation.

In principle, the club cannot disclose the details of the injury without the player's consent, so it seems very difficult to make clear the injury time estimate in the official report, especially if it does not match the three months announced by the player himself. Therefore, the statement may be limited to detailing the success of the surgery and “recovery progress will determine the time for return.”

It is not yet certain that medical reports received by Barcelona from French experts will show that the injury is four months or more. The report will be submitted to the Football Association Expert Committee for oversight. If approved, Barcelona can enforce Ter Stegen's long-term injury clause and utilize 80% of its salary space.
