The Western media "World Sports" reported that Barcelona hopes to interview Ter Stegen after the Asian tour to persuade him to sign a medical report to be submitted to La Liga.

Barcelona has not submitted Ter Stegen's medical report to La Liga. Ter Stegen performed surgery on his lumbar spine problem in Bordeaux last Tuesday by Dr. Amélie Leglise. Barcelona hopes that Ter Stegen will sign the report, but will not send it to him remotely. Given that the club's senior executives are currently traveling in Asia, they will wait until they return from South Korea to interview him. The club wants to be honest with Ter Stegen because he is a player who has been with the club for a long time and is the captain of the team. Therefore, the club's intention is to have a weighty person (sports director Deco is the most suitable person) meet him and explain to him what the club's medical team thinks it may be out of the league for 4 to 5 months. Based on this forecast, Barcelona hopes to submit the report to La Liga to allow clubs to use 80% of their salary space at the level of fiscal equity. This will allow them to register for Joan Garcia and Rashford.

In any case, Barcelona hopes to present their medical arguments openly to Ter Stegen. It was one thing for the club to decide to sign Joan Garcia, but it would be another if Ter Stegen's injury was long-term and the club could not use the space for fiscal fairness policy to register other players.

If the injury is indeed 5 months and is confirmed by the La Liga Medical Committee, Barcelona can use that 80% of the space in the salary fairness policy level. If the injury is at most 4 months, since the transfer market has been opened, only 50% can be used. Another important point: the accuracy of the diagnostic submitted by the club to La Liga is crucial, because if the injured player returns early, the club will face severe penalties that will affect their future registration ability.

In any case, this meeting with Ter Stegen is to sign the club medical report that needs to be submitted for La Liga. It must wait until the Barcelona delegation returns from the Asian tour.
