Without playing since December and with just one game this season, Ter Stegen is a reinforcement for the Catalans from Girona, on loan from Barcelona until the end of the season. According to the Spanish press, the German international facilitated the agreement by agreeing to reduce his salary. An undisputed starter at Barcelona since 2014 – with 423 official games – Ter Stegen dealt with a ruptured kneecap tendon, in addition to successive back injuries. Therefore, he only played ten games in the last two seasons. The new Girona goalkeeper's CV includes the Champions League, Club World Cup, European Super Cup, La Liga (six), Spanish Cup (six), Spanish Super Cup (three) and Confederations Cup. The 33-year-old goalkeeper from Mönchengladbach has a contract with Barcelona until June 2028, with a release clause of 500 million euros. In the championship accounts, Girona is ranked 11th, with 24 points, five ahead of the relegation zone. In turn, Barcelona leads with 49 points.
