Szczesny remains Barca's number one goalkeeper.

Hansi Flick confirmed that Barcelona's goalkeeping position remains unchanged despite Marc-Andre ter Stegen's return from injury.

Szczesny will return to goal in the next match.

In the early hours of May 4th, Barca came from behind to beat Real Valladolid 2-1 in the 34th round of La Liga. Marc-Andre ter Stegen started in goal for this match, marking his first appearance after a long absence due to knee surgery.

However, coach Hansi Flick later confirmed that Szczesny would continue to be Barcelona's starting goalkeeper in the upcoming important matches. "Szczesny will be the goalkeeper in the match against Inter Milan on Tuesday and the game against Real Madrid in La Liga," Flick stated at the press conference after the victory against Real Valladolid.

The goalkeeping position at Barcelona has become a focal point of attention, as Ter Stegen is the current captain and the team's starting goalkeeper before suffering a serious injury. However, coach Flick insists he still has great faith in Szczesny.

Barcelona's management also has no intention of making major changes to the goalkeeping position, neither now nor in the near future. The team will retain Marc-André ter Stegen, but will extend Szczesny's contract to create competition for next season. At the same time, Barcelona also wants to give opportunities to young talents from the La Masia academy.

Szczesny's representatives have begun negotiations with Barcelona. Sporting Director Deco wants to extend the Polish goalkeeper's contract on a "1+1" basis, meaning a one-year extension with an option to stay for another year if certain conditions are met.
