Marc-André ter Stegen's future at Barcelona is nearing a resolution, as he has missed training for the fourth consecutive day of the pre-season preparations. According to "Mundo Deportivo," all parties expect to finalize the situation within a few hours, or at the latest by tomorrow.
The newspaper reported that there is an agreement between Ajax and Ter Stegen, along with another agreement between Barcelona and the German goalkeeper. The only remaining hurdle is the player's final approval after resolving some economic and tax aspects with his lawyer, which is the sole point delaying the completion of the deal so far.
The source added that Ajax's management has completed all necessary procedures after reaching an agreement with Barcelona regarding the loan of the goalkeeper for one season, along with the salary distribution mechanism and the amounts that the Dutch club will pay based on the number of matches he participates in.
Meanwhile, Barcelona's management believes they have completed all steps related to the deal, and there are no pending files on their side, emphasizing that the final decision now rests with Ter Stegen after settling the financial and tax details.
Ajax is looking to complete the transfer as soon as possible, allowing the German goalkeeper to travel to Amsterdam and join the team's training camp in preparation for the new season, ahead of their first official match scheduled for July 23 in the UEFA Europa Conference League.
