Barcelona Without Goalkeeper Ter Stegen Against Rayo Vallecano
JAKARTA - Barcelona are most likely without goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen against host Rayo Vallecano in the La Liga Spanish competition continued at the Campo de Futbol de Vallecas Stadium, Saturday, November 25 evening WIB. The back injury he experienced made him miss the match.
Barca lost one of the main pillars again. After Gavi, who was injured in his knee and had to end the season sooner, goalkeeper Ter Stegen would also miss out.
The German national team goalkeeper is still having problems on his back. This is what makes Ter Stegen unable to appear to strengthen Germany in test matches.
"I continue to follow developments in my condition after suffering an injury. I have contacted the doctor so I can find out how my health condition is," said Ter Stegen.
If finally Ter Stegen is absent, this will be a big blow for Barca. Because the 31st goalkeeper is Barca's mainstay under the bar.
However, coach Xavi Hernandez has prepared the second goalkeeper Inaki Pena to replace Ter Stegen if he fails to appear.
This season, Pena has not appeared for Barca at all. He will have his first match against Vallecano.
Apart from Ter Stegen, the knee injury experienced by midfielder Gavi while defending the Spanish national team became Xavi's problem.
Losing one of the mainstay players is clearly a tough blow to Barca. Moreover, Gavi suffered an injury in the Euro 2024 qualifying match which was no longer decisive.
Repotnya lagi, Barca belum keluar dari masalah fnansial sehingga tidak bisa dengan mudah membeli pemain untuk mengganti Gavi.
Because Gavi will be absent until the end of the season. In fact, he is threatened with not being able to come to Germany to compete at Euro 2024.

Xavi was finally only able to maximize the academy players, Unai Hernandez, Aleix Garrido and Marc Casado, to replace Gavi.
Xavi could actually expect Frenkie de Jong or Pedri to replace Gavi. But if both have not recovered and are still grappling with injury, Xavi will maximize academy players.
Barca, currently, are in third place with 30 points. Four points adrift of Girona who is at the top of the standings. Meanwhile, Real Madrid are in second place with 32 points.
