The Borussia Monchengladbach stopper has long been linked to the Catalan
giants and looks set to replace Victor Valdes this summer
Barcelona's hunt for a successor to Victor Valdes
is edging closer to completion, with Marc-Andre ter Stegen having reportedly completed a secret medical.
The highly-rated Borussia Monchengladbach stopper
has long been touted as the man Los Cules
want to replace Valdes, who after more than a decade as first choice has decided to leave the club this summer.
German daily Bild
reports that the 21-year-old keeper has agreed to a five-year deal with the Catalan club and passed a medical.
According to Bild
, when asked about the subject by a reporter, ter Stegen replied "If you
say so… that's news to me", while supposedly unable to conceal a wide
smile on his face.
However, it's reckoned that no formal announcement has yet been made
out of respect for current No 1 Valdes, who remains with the club as
they chase Champions League, La Liga and Copa del Rey glory.
