Guardiola is looking for a goalkeeper for Manchester City and Ter Stegen could be the ideal option. The German does not plan to leave Bar\u00e7a, but the signing of Joan Garc\u00eda complicates his future<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

Marc-Andr\u00e9 ter Stegen’s future could take a 180-degree turn this summer. Although the German has a contract for three more years with FC Barcelona, the imminent signing of Joan Garc\u00eda casts doubt on his future<\/a>. In addition, a ‘heavyweight’ of the Premier League would already have the ‘1’ cul\u00e9 on their radar.<\/p>

The latest information points to Manchester City’s interest in the Bar\u00e7a goalkeeper and captain. Pep Guardiola prioritizes signing an alternative to Ederson<\/strong> who was far from his best version in 24\/25, as was almost the entire squad.<\/p>

The Brazilian missed 10 games due to various muscular problems and the Santpedor native does not seem willing to continue trusting a Stefan Ortega who ends his contract in 2026<\/strong> and is expected to leave the Manchester team this summer.<\/p>

In addition, the City’s third goalkeeper, the experienced Scott Carson (39 years old), will also leave the team in June<\/strong>. Hence the club’s need to acquire an experienced goalkeeper, capable of leading a defense that had a season to forget.<\/p>

Understanding that the board will again make a high investment to reinforce the center of the field and the attack, probably the ‘sky blue’ team will opt for a ‘low cost’ alternative for the goal<\/strong> and Ter Stegen has an ideal profile.<\/p>

Bar\u00e7a does not rule out putting Ter Stegen on the market this summer<\/h2>

In that sense, the possible signing of Joan Garc\u00eda is the main reason to doubt the future of the cul\u00e9 captain<\/strong>. The arrival of the Espanyol goalkeeper is a luxury reinforcement for a Bar\u00e7a that also hopes to close soon the renewal of Wojciech Szczesny<\/a>.<\/p>

However, beyond the continuity of the Pole, the incorporation of the Sallent native does pose a major challenge for a Ter Stegen in theory ready to regain the starting position<\/strong> from the first day of 25\/26.<\/p>

If Joan Garcia arrives, Bar\u00e7a will put Ter Stegen on the market <\/a> <\/h4> <\/div> <\/section><\/div>

The 33-year-old played a couple of matches in the final stretch of LaLiga (Valladolid and Villarreal)<\/strong> where, although he conceded 4 goals, he made it clear that he had completely overcome the serious knee injury suffered at the beginning of the season.<\/p>

In any case, the club will not make hasty decisions. Once Garc\u00eda’s signing is resolved, there will probably be a meeting with the ‘1’ to talk about his future<\/strong>. If Marc-Andr\u00e9 insists on staying, Bar\u00e7a will not consider his departure in the summer.<\/p>

How much could Bar\u00e7a earn from Ter Stegen?<\/h2>

Considering his age (33) and recent history of injuries (he was also out for several months in 23\/24), it is likely that Bar\u00e7a could earn around 10-12 million euros<\/strong> for the M\u00f6nchengladbach native.<\/p>

A similar figure to what, in theory, the azulgrana team can receive for I\u00f1aki Pe\u00f1a<\/a><\/strong>. The Alicante native hopes to resolve his transfer to Celta de Vigo soon, although he also has options to return to Turkey, where he already played a semester on loan to Galatasaray.<\/p>

The ‘1’, however, has a contract until 2028 and his market value on Transfermarkt is 30 ‘kilos’<\/strong>. However, he remains one of the goalkeepers with the highest hierarchy in Spanish football, the undisputed owner of the azulgrana goal for the last decade and with a total of 422 official appearances and 175 clean sheets as a cul\u00e9.<\/p>
