Ter Stegen's Injury May Return Him to Barcelona
The Spanish club Girona received a severe blow after their German goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen was injured, in a negative development that quickly ended his start with the team, after participating in only two matches since joining.
According to what was reported by the Spanish radio station 'Cadena SER', Ter Stegen suffered a significant muscle injury during Girona's match against Real Oviedo, with initial results of the medical examinations he underwent being not reassuring.
The report indicated that the German goalkeeper's absence might extend between 2-4 months, pending the final medical examinations that will precisely determine the nature of the injury. In this context, the club's management is considering all possible options, including the option of ending the loan and the player's return to his club Barcelona.
The source added that the injury might involve a tear in the hamstring with the possibility of tendon involvement, and the German goalkeeper may resort to surgical intervention in the coming period.
Ter Stegen participated for the first time with Girona on January 26 against Getafe at the Montilivi Stadium, where the match ended in a draw, before playing his second full match under coach Michel against Real Oviedo, which ended with the team losing by one goal to nil.
