Barcelona suddenly withdrew its meritorious captain! Medical report triggered an internal fight, and the door god lost 100,000 fans in 24 hours

On August 7, a notice from the Barcelona Club set off a storm: Meritorious goalkeeper Ter Stegen was immediately revoked from his position as first team captain and the captain's armband was transferred to Araujo. The club also announced that it would officially initiate a disciplinary investigation process against the old minister who had been with him for 11 years. The

fuse pointed to a fierce confrontation around the injury report. Barcelona, deeply trapped in financial quagmire, urgently needs to release salary space to register new players. La Liga rules are like a life-saving straw: if a player is absent due to injury for at least 4 months, the club can use 80% of his salary to complete the registration.

Barcelona team doctor will need to recover from Ter Stegen's injury by 4-5 months. If you apply based on this report, the club will be able to alleviate the urgent need. However, Ter Stegen firmly believed that he would return in only 3 months and flatly refused to submit the report to the La Liga Medical Committee and even refused to sign the authorization. During the entire operation, he did not even communicate with the club and announced the timeline without authorization.

This refusal angered Barcelona senior executives. The club's announcement was stern, accusing its actions of "damaging the interests of the club." Chairman Laporta directly canceled the meeting plan with Ter Stegen and had a clear attitude: unless the player takes the initiative to bow his head, the senior management will no longer have conversations. Coach Frick even directly implemented the senior management decision in the locker room and removed him from his position as captain on the spot. The

storm swept through social media instantly. Spanish Channel Six exposed comparative screenshots: In just 24 hours, Terstegen social media lost 100,000 followers, from about 17.4 million to 17.3 million. Barcelona fans expressed their disappointment with this former hero by unblocking the pass.

However, Terstegen was also angry. According to Catalan media TV3, on the first day of Barcelona's recovery training after the Asian tour, the German goalkeeper who should have recovered from injury suddenly appeared at the training base. He did not meet with coach Flick and left in a hurry after a brief stop in the locker room. The players' camp made a tough statement: Ter Stegen considered himself "the victim of a smear operation". He firmly refused to sign any report, believing that it was a "trap" set by the club. He was angry that the club pushed himself against the fans and complained that no senior executives had communicated with him for weeks. Whether it is possible to leave the team, or the captain's armband that is about to be deprived.

If no one is notified to change his arrangements, he still plans to appear in the Gambel Cup on Sunday. This time he appeared failed to resolve the ice. The club, with Frick's support, has accelerated the voting process for captain candidates.

This break around a medical report is dragging Barcelona into a deeper crisis. The soap opera of the meritorious captain and a century-old wealthy family opened in this way, and the ending was destined to be full of unknowns and games. The opening match of the new season is imminent, Ter Stegen recovers from injury, and new goalkeepers Joan Garcia and Szczesny are both unable to register due to salary space issues. If there is no turnaround, when Barcelona plays against Majorca, only one available goalkeeper may be left.

A thin medical report has become a fulcrum that leverages the club's foundation. The breakup between meritorious deeds and the parent team was never an impulse overnight, but a collapse of the trust dam after being gradually eroded by financial pressure and communication faults.

Telstegen bet on the reputation accumulated in his career and the friendship of his fans, while Barcelona bet on the precarious future of competitive under the framework of fiscal fairness. When the interests of the club and the individual health of the players become either one or the other multiple-choice questions, the outcome of the loss seems to have been written long ago.
