Ter Stegen accelerates his return! The message that excites FC Barcelona

The recovery of Marc-André Ter Stegen is progressing at a speed that only a 'superhero' like the German can achieve. After suffering a complete rupture of the patellar tendon in his right knee, all forecasts ruled out the possibility of the goalkeeper returning this season. However, the player continues to make positive progress and his intention is to shorten the timeline as much as possible to return to play this season.

The goalkeeper's focus on this goal is total and the hopes of him donning the jersey again before the end of the current season are growing. Just a few days ago, Hansi Flick sparked excitement among Barcelona fans by stating that "Ter Stegen is on the right track. He has already started working with De la Fuente - the goalkeeper coach. It’s a first step, he has improved a lot, and we are very happy," and now the player has reaffirmed his coach's words.

Ter Stegen gives hope to Barça

And during the morning of this Saturday, Marc-André, who had already stepped onto the grass of the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper, put on his gloves for the first time since that fateful day at La Cerámica against Villarreal. Another step in the goalkeeper's rapid recovery, whose physical condition is evolving at an impressive pace thanks to an innovative stem cell treatment.

Doctor Robert Soler has been in charge of supervising the treatment in the Catalan capital, allowing the player to perform physical work using a splint just a couple of months after undergoing surgery. Moreover, the technique reduces the risk of future injuries by completely regenerating the damaged tissue in an area where the player from Mönchengladbach has already suffered several issues.

"Every comeback starts with small victories. I am very happy to put on the gloves and boots again after a while!" commented Ter Stegen through his social media, alongside images of him with a ball in his hands and doing exercises. Thus, at Can Barça, smiles are seen at the possibility of having their great captain back sooner than expected.
