Barcelona is clear that they no longer need Terstegen, where will the German international go?

Looking at Barcelona's determination to be in the goalkeeper position this summer is very great. After signing Juan Garcia and Szczesni, they have informed meritorious goalkeeper Ter Stegen very clearly that he is no longer in the team's future plans. But the problem is that for such a goalkeeper with a high level, high salary, and a long contract, it is not easy to find a suitable next home in the transfer market.

However, recent rumors from the UK provide a very interesting possibility. That is, Manchester City may become a potential destination for Ter Stegen. Let’s analyze the logic behind this rumor, which makes completely tactically. First of all, on Manchester City, their main goalkeeper Ederson and substitute goalkeeper Ortega have certain uncertainties in the future. Once any of them leaves, Guardiola must be looking for a new, experienced and skilled goalkeeper in the market. The requirement of

can be said to be perfectly consistent with the technical characteristics of Ter Stegen. Guardiola's tactical system has extremely high requirements for the goalkeeper's ability to shoot at his feet, and the goalkeeper is the starting point of the entire offensive system. Ter Stegen has played for Barcelona for many years, and what he is best at is organizing and launching offensives in the backcourt. So, if Manchester City really needs a new goalkeeper, then Ter Stegen is undoubtedly an ideal candidate. For the player himself, being able to join a top team like Manchester City and continuing to play in the Champions League can also help him maintain the highest level of competitive state before the 2026 World Cup.

Of course, this rumor needs several prerequisites to become a reality. The most important thing is that some existing goalkeepers in Manchester City must leave the team first to make room and space. But no matter what, compared to going to some other clubs and joining Guardiola's Manchester City, for Ter Stegen, it is undoubtedly the most reasonable choice in tactical terms.
