Marc-Andre ter Stegen will soon join Ajax

Marc-Andre ter Stegen is set to join Ajax provided he passes his medical. He will be taken on loan from Barcelona. Ajax have kept an eye on Ter Stegen for a long time. The German goalkeeper provides experience, leadership and playing skills needed by the team. Technical director Jordi Cruyff knows Ter Stegen well during his tenure at Barcelona, ​​while Mitchell coached him at Verona over the past six months. Although Ter Stegen could only play twice there due to injuries, Mitchell insisted on bringing him to Amsterdam. This proved decisive for ter Stegen, who also considered other proposals. Ajax also had to reach an agreement with Barcelona, ​​which was not so easy. Ter Stegen is earning a handsome salary at Barcelona, ​​so a loan deal was the best option for Ajax. Now Barcelona has also agreed to this: the club will cover a significant part of his salary, as was the case with Verona over the last six months. Ter Stegen has now reached Amsterdam, where he has to undergo his medical examination. If he is successful, he will become Ajax's new number one goalkeeper.
