The future of German goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen with Barcelona is in question, given the impressive performance of Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny with the Catalan team this season under the leadership of Hans Flick.

Szczęsny has managed to establish himself as a key player in Barcelona's lineup, having delivered outstanding performances since his return from retirement, achieving a clean sheet percentage of 52%, having kept a clean sheet in 11 out of 21 matches, while conceding only 18 goals during that time.

Despite Ter Stegen's efforts to return to the pitch quickly after a long injury, Szczęsny's brilliance has prompted Barcelona's management to delay the decision regarding the return of the German goalkeeper to the starting lineup.

Ter Stegen has shown support for his Polish teammate, warmly embracing him after the recent Borussia Dortmund match, but that does not prevent his determination to reclaim his position before the end of the season.

However, current indications suggest that Szczęsny's continued performance at this level may force coach Hans Flick to continue relying on him as the first-choice goalkeeper for Barcelona.
