Barcelona eager to hand German goalie new contract

Barcelona are keen on renewing the contract of goalkeeper Marc-Andre Ter Stegen a priority this summer.

According to a report on the front page of Saturday’s edition of El Mundo Deportivo, suggests there is growing confidence a fresh deal can be reached in the coming weeks.

The German goalkeeper’s current deal at the Camp Nou runs through until the summer of 2022, after he penned an extended contract in 2017 but contract talks have stalled amid the financial uncertainty following the coronavirus pandemic.

However, it is now reported that the Catalan giants have begun to accelerate the renewal talks in order to guarantee his commitment to the club for many years to come and rule out speculation of an exit.
