Will Ter Stegen leave Barcelona? How much has been offered to the Barcelona goalkeeper from Saudi Arabia?

It has been reported that Barcelona’s goalkeeper, Marc-Andre Ter Stegen, has received a significant offer to play in Saudi Arabia.

It has been reported that the German goalkeeper, currently number one choice at the reigning Primera División champions, has been offered a move to the Asian kingdom that has seen huge stars such as Neymar, Cristiano Ronaldo, Firminho and Kanté pack their bags and leave football’s elite.

Ter Stegen has established himself as one of Europe’s top goalkeepers and played a key role in Barcelona’s title winning season last year, where he conceded just 20 goals in 38 games. The shot stopper is known for his fantastic ability with the ball at his feet, as well as his sensational 1vs1 capabilities.
