Marc André ter Stegen, close to a loan move to Ajax from Barcelona
According to Florian Plettenberg, Ajax is working on a loan move for Marc André ter Stegen. No agreements are in place yet, but negotiations are advancing.
The German goalkeeper Marc André ter Stegen, 31 years old, currently under contract with FC Barcelona until June 30, 2028, could be one step away from a loan to Ajax. His market value is estimated at €3 million, suggesting that the Dutch club could see him as a viable option to strengthen their goal.
Conversations have been reported by several sources, including Nicolò Schira and Fabrizio Romano, who indicate that Ajax's interest is serious and negotiations are well underway. Romano, in particular, has noted that the deal is agreed in principle, although there are still minor details to be resolved.
A transfer of this nature would have significant implications for both parties. For Barcelona, loaning out ter Stegen could free up part of their wage bill and allow for new reinforcements, as the club seeks to adjust its squad. On the other hand, Ajax could benefit from the experience and quality of the German goalkeeper, who has been key in Barcelona's setup in recent years.
As negotiations progress, ter Stegen's future at Ajax seems closer. However, the agreement has not yet been finalized, leaving the door open for possible surprises as the transfer window closes.
