September 23: In the sixth round of the La Liga match that concluded in the early hours of this morning, Barcelona’s main goalkeeper, Ter Stegen, landed on his right foot during a save and ultimately suffered a severe injury. He was carried off the field on a stretcher and rushed to the hospital before the game ended.
According to the latest revelation from the Spanish media outlet RAC1, the preliminary examination of Ter Stegen indicates that the German goalkeeper’s patellar tendon may have ruptured, although it has been ruled out that his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is torn. Based on the scan results, he will be out for eight months.
