After a seven-month recovery from knee surgery, Barcelona’s captain and goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen is set to make his starting debut in La Liga against Real Valladolid on Saturday.
Ter Stegen missed the season since a severe knee patella tendon rupture against Villarreal in September that required surgery and lengthy recovery.
Barcelona tops the La Liga standings with 76 points, holding a four-point advantage over Real Madrid as they prepare to face the already relegated Valladolid, who have allowed 81 goals across 33 matches.
Coach Hansi Flick confirmed Ter Stegen’s return, plans squad rotations, and said, "Marc is on a good path" and "training fantastically well" ahead of the match.
Ter Stegen’s availability boosts Barcelona’s title defense as the team prepares for five remaining league games and a Champions League semi-final second leg.
