Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen has escalated his refusal to leave during the summer transfer window, further complicating the goalkeeping crisis within the Catalan club.

According to the newspaper "Sport," ter Stegen has rejected listening to any offers from clubs such as Monaco or Galatasaray, and even from major clubs like Chelsea, insisting on either completing his contract with Barcelona or leaving on his own terms.

Barcelona had planned to resolve the goalkeeping issue by signing Juan Garcia and renewing Wojciech Szczesny's contract, but ter Stegen's insistence on his stance and refusal to negotiate has made matters more complicated less than two weeks before the start of the pre-season for the new season.

The German goalkeeper feels a great disappointment from the club's sports management after being excluded from future plans and having negative news leaked about him, which he considers unprofessional behavior within Barcelona.

It is expected that ter Stegen will meet with coach Hans Flick in mid-July to determine his future before the start of official training, amid the management's desire for him to leave for free or on loan, but so far there are no official negotiations in this regard.
