Barca sues Ter Stegen.

Marc-Andre ter Stegen refused to sign the medical report that Barcelona sent to La Liga, leading the Catalan club to initiate legal action against the player.

Ter Stegen is angry about how Barcelona has treated him.

According to Mundo Deportivo , Barcelona planned to send Ter Stegen's official medical report to La Liga, confirming the player's expected recovery time is four months. However, the goalkeeper refused to sign the form allowing Barcelona to submit the medical report to La Liga. Without Ter Stegen's consent, Barca's new player registration process is completely stalled.

Previously, Barcelona hoped La Liga would allow the club to use 80% of Ter Stegen's salary to register a new player, a move previously used in the case of Andreas Christensen's injury to register Dani Olmo last season. This only happened when the medical report clearly stated that Ter Stegen would be out for four months.

The player's refusal to sign Barcelona's medical report has brought the situation to a standstill. To resolve the situation, the club's legal team will sue Ter Stegen. The German goalkeeper is also not sitting idly by, arguing that sending the medical report without his consent is a violation of his privacy.

However, Barcelona argued that this was a mandatory requirement to comply with La Liga regulations, and that Ter Stegen's refusal to sign was causing financial and sporting damage to the club.

Ter Stegen underwent back surgery in Bordeaux (France) at the end of July. Barca expected the player to be out of action for 4 months. However, the player unexpectedly announced that he would only be out for 3 months, putting Barca in a difficult position.

Marca commented that Ter Stegen deliberately stated his recovery time as three months to prevent Barcelona from using La Liga's salary regulations to make it difficult to register new goalkeeper Joan Garcia.
