Marc-André ter Stegen is reportedly set to join Ajax on loan from Barcelona after an injury-plagued season. The German goalkeeper managed just two appearances while on loan at Girona before injury sidelined him for the campaign. With Joan Garcia firmly established as Barcelona's starting keeper, questions arise about the wisdom of allowing ter Stegen to leave, especially given the current backup situation following Iñaki Peña's departure. Barcelona may have to cover a majority of ter Stegen’s salary during the loan.

- •Joan Garcia is the current undisputed starter for Barcelona.
- •Iñaki Peña's exit has left Barcelona with limited goalkeeper options.
- •Barcelona may cover most of ter Stegen's salary while on loan.
- •Discussion centers on whether to keep ter Stegen as backup.
