The brass at La Liga giants Barcelona are hopeful of finding a contract termination agreement with a member of the club’s first-team ranks this summer.
That’s according to Diario Sport, who point towards Marc-André ter Stegen as the player in question.
Goalkeeper Ter Stegen’s future has of course taken its place centre stage in the headlines in Catalunya’s capital over the course of the last couple of weeks.
This comes amid the understanding that Espanyol standout Joan García’s arrival at Barcelona could push the club’s long-time no.1 out the exit door.
Ter Stegen himself has remained unwavering in media interviews that he will be going nowhere over the months ahead, eager to prolong his 10+ year stay at the Camp Nou.
As alluded to above, though, if the latest word doing the rounds in Spain on Saturday is anything to go by, the Barcelona brass appear ready to do whatever it takes to part with the German.
As per Sport:
‘Barça will offer him next year’s payment of his contract so that he can accept the letter of freedom and can negotiate with whoever he considers appropriate his next professional step.’
The proposal put in front of Ter Stegen, in simpler words, will be an immediate termination of his contract terms through 2028, in exchange for the full payment of next season’s salary.
