Marc-André ter Stegen arrives at Girona after more than a decade at Barça, where he was considered one of the best goalkeepers in the world. Despite the surprise that his destination is a team that has struggled in the lower zone, the German demonstrated yesterday that the decision was clear and that he seeks to recover his best form.
“"We talked before coming because I wanted to know firsthand how he saw the situation and what he wanted from me. Once here, the first contact with him has been spectacular."
The goalkeeper stressed that his arrival is a “perfect symbiosis” with the club, as the profile he offers fits Míchel's playing style, especially after a year and a half marked by injuries. His goal is to be a starter this Monday against Getafe.
“"The farewell was very hard and it is difficult for me to talk about it. I am leaving a spectacular locker room and teammates. It is a big change after almost 12 years."
Ter Stegen thanked veterans like Stuani and David López for the welcome and assured that, despite the change in mentality regarding the fight for titles, the demand remains the same. He confirmed that his departure from Barça is due to Flick's decision to bet on Joan Garcia.
