Marc-André ter Stegen finished the season touched of his right knee and between the club and he have decided that the best was to go through the operating theatre to solve his problems. At the end, the German archer has been operated of the sinew rotuliano in Barcelona this Tuesday in the morning by the doctor Ramon Cugat. The intervention has been satisfactory and there has not been any unexpected complication that have put in risk to the germano.
The FC Barcelona has confirmed in a brief medical communiqué that the goalkeeper is well and that will be of drop around two months and half. It expected that it was a bit less, some two months, but at the end will lengthen a bit more. Therefore, if all goes normal, the one of Mönchengladbach will not return to the terrains of game until principles of November and will lose the first month and half of competition.
The idea that have all the parts is to try shorten the terms to go back what before, although it will be quite complicated that it can return before beginnings of November. Any operation of knee requires time and patience, and does not suit to precipitate the things to warn possible relapses. Therefore, the Barça goes to have to survive to the first stretch of campaign without his big saviour.
The one of Mönchengladbach has been this course one of the artífices that the Barcelona have been able to compete to the end in LaLiga and have been in the 'Final to Eight' of Lisbon. Without his interventions milagrosas, the group barcelonista there would be empatado or lost a lot of meetings in which at the end it finish winning. The defence culé goes to have to give his best version to compensate the absence of the archer this time.
Net will replace to Ter Stegen until November
Another that will have to be to his best level is Net Walled, that will be the attendant to relieve to the German until it can reappear. The Brazilian sounded like possible sale this summer, but seems that at the end it will remain in the Camp Nou a year more. During this time will try to show that it can compete of you to you with the German, something that could not do this last course, since hardly it had opportunities to do it.
The ex of Valencia is far of the level of the Ter Stegen, Oblak or even Thibaut Courtouis, but is a good guardameta and the Barcelona has luck to be able to have he. No a lot of teams have a second goalkeeper of his level and the group blaugrana can be calm. On the other hand, everything indicates that Iñaki Crag will remain to be the third goalkeeper of the first team, by what will be the alternative for the ex valencianista.
