Barcelona goalkeeper Marc André ter Stegen is set to pen a contract extension which will keep him at the Nou Camp until the summer of 2025, according to the reliable Fabrizio Romano.

ter Stegen has developed into one of the best goalkeepers in the world during his time at Barcelona. Considering he is just 28-years-old, relatively young for a ‘keeper, the Catalan giants have done well to find a long-term solution in that area of the field.
