Marc-Andre ter Stegen returns to Barcelona training amid Ajax loan delay

Summary

Marc-Andre ter Stegen resumed training with Barcelona on July 17 after missing the previous day’s session. His anticipated loan move to AFC Ajax remains on hold while awaiting final administrative approvals, despite a reported agreement between the clubs. Ter Stegen is currently handling tax paperwork related to the transfer. Both Barcelona and Ajax are optimistic about completing the deal soon, which would relieve some salary pressure for Barcelona as Ter Stegen is no longer part of the team's plans.
