Barcelona HubBarcelona will register Joan Garcia this Thursday after LaLiga approved Ter Stegen's long-term injury. The LaLiga Medical Commission has ruled that the German goalkeeper's injury meets the criteria for long-term injury established by the current regulations.
What happened?
Ter Stegen's injury has been a topic of debate at the club, as the German goalkeeper underwent back surgery and his recovery is expected to take more than three months.
Why is it important for Barcelona?
The registration of Joan Garcia is important for the club, as the goalkeeper signed this summer from Espanyol will be able to play with the azulgrana team. The club can use part of the salary mass that corresponded to the German and use it to register the new goalkeeper.
What's next?
Barcelona reports that it will not delay in registering the new goalkeeper, and with whom Hansi Flick will be able to count from this weekend to play against Mallorca. The team led by Joan Laporta thus resolves the problem it had in goal and that, in addition to not having its new goalkeeper registered, unleashed a war between captain Ter Stegen and the club.
