After Barcelona achieved a difficult victory over Atletico Madrid 1-0 in the 15th round of La Liga yesterday, Sunday, Mundo Deportivo shocked the Blaugrana fans when it announced a mystery surrounding the injury of one of the team\u2019s most prominent stars and confirmed that he may need surgery to recover, which is something the Catalan club is trying to do. Stay away from him as much as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Xavi Hern\u00e1ndez\u00a0left a worrying phrase in the air in his post-match press conference.\u00a0Asked about\u00a0Marc-Andr\u00e9\u00a0Ter Stegen\u00a0, the Bar\u00e7a coach said: “Marc\u00a0has some discomfort in his back and we are going to see this week how things are, anything we have to announce we will say. He has those discomforts that he can’t quite clean up.” and let’s see.”\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this sentence, the coach left in the air the possibility that the German goalkeeper would have to be out for more time or even (although without saying so) that he would have to undergo surgery. This was confirmed by locker room sources. In any case, it is expected that this Monday more things will be known about the physical condition of the German goalkeeper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ter Stegen<\/strong>\u00a0was absent from the German team during the last international break due to low back pain that has been treated with conservative treatment.\u00a0However, he has missed three games with\u00a0Bar\u00e7a<\/strong>\u00a0, those of\u00a0Rayo Vallecano\u00a0,\u00a0Porto\u00a0and\u00a0Atl\u00e9tico de Madrid\u00a0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This Monday he will undergo more tests to determine what to do with those pains that do not subside and that make him unable to play. Hence Xavi<\/strong> said in his press conference that “anything we have to announce we will say.” It is expected that the player and the technical staff will clear up doubts shortly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The operating room will be avoided as little as possible, but it is a possibility to study given that the player’s discomfort has not subsided and it is a problem that cannot be ignored because it could become chronic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Source: Mundo Deportivo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" After Barcelona achieved a difficult victory over Atletico Madrid 1-0 in the 15th round of La Liga yesterday, Sunday, Mundo Deportivo shocked the Blaugrana fans when it announced a mystery surrounding the injury of one of the team\u2019s most prominent stars and confirmed that he may need surgery to recover, which is something the Catalan …<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1716,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1715","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-barcelona"],"yoast_head":"\n
