Marc-André Ter Stegen was diagnosed with low back pain. While the German goalkeeper undergoes surgery, FC Barcelona suffers one of the great consequences of this situation: paying the player's salary despite not being able to count on him on the playing field.

Of course, the German goalkeeper earns about 9 million euros annually and after the surgery he will be out for approximately three months, a really considerable time and more if one takes into account the amount that must be deposited for that period.

If Marc-André Ter Stegen completes those months of inactivity, Barça will have to spend around 2,250,000 euros without using him at a key moment of the season. Added to this, the Culés are not going through a good economic situation to waste money, although this situation is usually contemplated and is one of the great risks taken in this sport.

Days ago, FC Barcelona announced that Marc-André Ter Stegen was going to undergo surgery through their social networks. There, the Blaugrana team explained that "he will undergo surgery this week to solve the lumbar problems that he presents."
