In a developing transfer twist, Manchester City are reportedly keeping a close eye on Marc-André ter Stegen’s situation at FC Barcelona, according to Diario AS. With long-serving goalkeeper Ederson potentially on the move this summer, Pep Guardiola’s side is exploring elite-level replacements—and the German international has emerged as a prime candidate.
Sources suggest that Hansi Flick does not view Ter Stegen as an untouchable piece in his long-term project, and with Barcelona’s ongoing efforts to reduce their wage bill, a potential sale is not being ruled out. The Catalan giants, while respectful of Ter Stegen’s contributions, are understood to be open to offers if the terms suit both club and player.
This uncertainty has alerted Manchester City, who view the 32-year-old shot-stopper as a proven, high-caliber option to step into their system—especially given Ter Stegen’s ability to play out from the back and maintain composure under pressure, traits highly valued by Guardiola.
With the summer transfer window heating up, this could be one of the most surprising moves to watch—especially if City make an official approach and Ter Stegen sees a new challenge in the Premier League
