Barcelona is actively considering a major signing for a new goalkeeper in the upcoming summer transfer window. This comes after a difficult period for the club, particularly following a serious knee injury to first-choice goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen, which is expected to keep him out for the remainder of the season.
According to Diario Sport, club management has increasingly emphasized the need for a top-tier goalkeeper. Even prior to Ter Stegen’s injury, his performances had drawn criticism from fans, who are eager for a new addition to strengthen the squad.
The report suggests that while Barcelona is hopeful for Ter Stegen’s recovery, they also acknowledge the necessity of finding a medium- to long-term replacement for the German international. As a result, sports director Deco and his team are already compiling a list of potential goalkeeper targets for the 2024/25 season.
As the Catalan club aims to enhance their squad and resolve goalkeeping issues, this potential move highlights Barcelona’s commitment to remaining competitive in La Liga and beyond.
