Barcelona star rejects move to Turkey | OneFootball

A member of the goalkeeper ranks at La Liga champions Barcelona recently rejected a contract proposal by way of Turkish heavyweights Galatasaray.

That’s according to Diario Sport, who point towards Marc-André ter Stegen as the player in question.

Shot-stopper Ter Stegen is of course widely expected to be on the move before the summer is out.

This comes with the imminent arrival of Joan García, as well as the continued faith being shown in Wojciech Szczęsny, set to leave the German as the odd man out.

A number of clubs from across the continent, in turn, have been tipped as potential destinations.

And as alluded to above, this past weekend, one such club – in Galatasaray – went as far as to table a contract proposal to Ter Stegen and his entourage.

Despite claims elsewhere in the media that as much had been accepted by the representative of the 33-year-old, however, Sport confirm:

‘The sources consulted by this newsroom indicate that the meeting was not satisfactory. Galatasaray’s first offer has not convinced Marc-André ter Stegen. Far from the agreement advanced by the local press, the goalkeeper’s agent would have rejected the Turkish club’s sporting proposal.’
