World Sports: Barcelona proposes to remove Ter Stegen from his captain position

According to the Spanish media "World Sports", Barcelona internally proposed to remove Ter Stegen from his position as captain. The captain issue at

Barcelona is currently secondary, but it is obvious that there is a significant change in the situation in Ter Stegen. The club trusts Joan Garcia very much, and the substitute they want is Szczesni. Against this background, there are voices in the Barcelona club that it is contradictory to leave the captain's position to Ter Stegen. Ter Stegen decided to stay in the team, and Frick told him that Joan Garcia would become the main goalkeeper.

Therefore, the captain's problem is a "trouble" and Frick has to make a decision after the holiday is over. The first captain was a key figure in the locker room because he was the object of direct communication between the coaching staff, sports management and the board of directors as player representatives. And in the preseason, there are already many important issues that need to be dealt with.

Given that the decision not to rely on Ter Stegen's decision, there is a tendency within the club to adjust the captain's structure and believe that it is best to intervene with the head coach and follow Guardiola's approach at Manchester City. Guardiola decided to choose the captain himself this summer, after which the players had elected in the past few years.

After having an unpleasant experience with De Bruyne and Kyle Walker last season, Guardiola decided that he would be appointed to the captain this time and designated Bernardo Silva, Ruben Dias, Rodri and Haaland as captains.

Guardiola said: "This is the first time in my career that I chose a captain myself. I don't like what happened last season, so I decided to represent the team myself this year. Sometimes I want to be the one who gives orders."

In the case of Barcelona, ​​if any changes are needed, it must be executed by Frick, if he thinks it is more advantageous for the team to have a captain who has no doubts to stay. In fact, Frick had another conversation with Ter Stegen.

In this regard, club executives believe Inigor Martinez is the ideal candidate to join the captain's team because he is experienced, has prestige in the locker room, and communicates well with Frick. Currently, the team's captains are: Ter Stegen, Araujo, De Jong, Rafinia and Pedri.
