June 21, June 21, Recently, the Assert talked about the poor situation of Ter Stegen in Barcelona. They said that the players have now lost the support of the club and the love of the fans.

Barcelona signed new goalkeeper Joan Garcia for 26.3 million euros, which not only demonstrated Deco's smart operation, but also put another once highly-watched goalkeeper Ter Stegen in trouble.

Telstegen was once the undisputed starting goalkeeper for Barcelona, ​​but now he has quickly fallen out of favor. Although this may seem unexpected to some, it is not that surprising if you look back on events over the past few years.

For many years, no matter how Ter Stegen performed, discussions about him have been the topic of the penalty area. Despite his controversial performances in Europe (such as the crushing defeats against Rome, Liverpool and Bayern), he has always been regarded as an unshakable main force.

Even after many surgeries, his condition has declined significantly, no one questioned his status as the main force. In fact, he has been considered one of the world's top three or top five goalkeepers for years, although he hasn't even scored a steady starting position in the German national team.

However, with the arrival of coach Flick and Deco began to pay close attention to Ter Stegen's performance, things changed. At the end of last season, Ter Stegen's performance after returning from injury was not satisfactory, and even made some low-level mistakes.

In addition, according to reporter Xavi Torres, Ter Stegen rejected the club's request in some cases, such as refusing to go to Milan after the semi-finals against Inter Milan, which made the club's senior management and teammates feel unhappy.

Telstegen's behavior has been quite controversial, and he publicly admitted that in the summer of 2016, he almost left the team to join Manchester City in order to become the undisputed starting goalkeeper.

In the end, Bravo left the team, but Ter Stegen has never had a very harmonious relationship with core players such as Messi, Neymar, and Suarez. His captainship was not obtained through teammates’ votes, but because he is the oldest player on the team.

In fact, Ter Stegen's state and behavior have not changed much in the past few years. What really changed is the club's attitude. From previous protection and support to the current silence and doubt, Ter Stegen has lost the club's support and the love of fans.

Although he has performed well in the league and has become the goalkeeper with the least goals conceded in 2022/2023, he has not left any classic moments like Subizareta or Valdes in the European arena.
