 Marc-Andre ter Stegen to Liverpool: Reds 'have £10m bid rejected' as Barcelona want for £20m for goalkeeper

It’s claimed that Liverpool have already moved for Ter Stegen with a £10m bid, but were rebuffed by the Catalan side who would be unwilling to let the goalkeeper leave unless the Reds double their offer.

If this is true, wtf? Just pay the 20m!!!

hey, why not just pay 50m if that's what they want?

Bit of a stinker against Atheltic Bilbao in the Spanish Cup.

 

Ter Stegen, R.Rodriguez, Pjanic, A.Teixiera with Sturridge and Ings fit = PL, or at the very least, runners up

This would be incredible.....





For 2 weeks - then Sturridge will get injured.

They are asking for 20m, not 50m, so I don't see the problem in paying 20m for a strong young keeper with experience that can potentially become exceptional. Oh, he is also a big improvement to Migs, just look at his performances in the CL last season.

For 2 weeks - then Sturridge will get injured.

Come on Gerns stop this fantasy, there's no way in the world Studge stays fit for 2 weeks.

Is he a 20m keeper? Couldn't we get Butland for that?

It would hardly get you and the kids to Butlands for that never mind a top notch goalie .

You make it sound like Butland is a level or two better than Ter-Stegen

How do you forecast that? Bravo has been nothing short of immense for a couple of seasons.

Ter Stegen is too good to be #2. Their B team GK Masip has earned good respect having come through the academy. I dont see the German sticking around for a long time, just like the Cech-Courtios situation. We could try our luck before other CL teams make their first bid.

bravo has been immense and is now into his 30's, as for masip really don't see him as number one calibre. Ter stegen has a lot to learn and is not at bravo's level yet but is playing all the cup games.

Dude, 30s aint nothing for GKs. Look at Cech. Van der Saar was immense until he was 39! If Ter Stegen is keen on regular game time and has a good agent, I doubt his stay at Barca beyond this summer.

No way we're gonna fork out 20mil on him. Can see him at United next season after Madrid come in for De Gea to be honest.

the bottom line is that the ter stegen link is pure fantasy, no bid was made and at no time has he been made available.

Watched his last handful of games and he looks....sh*te.

But still better than Mignolet ?

To be fair, "is he better than X?" isn't good enough for us.

It should be "is he the best player we can possibly get for that position?"

But still better than Mignolet ?

I can't say he is, mate. He gets caught out of position a fair bit.

He hasn't been tested too much in terms of shots but his movement is pretty poor. Could be rusty without a continuous run in the side, though.

ter Stegen once again looking shoddy as F**k tonight. Have him, City.

But ter Stegen wants to stay at Barcelona and challenge for his place alongside fellow goalkeepers Claudio Bravo and Jordi Masip.

“I’m very happy here and I want to stay here, with the life I have,” he said. “It’s a lovely place to live.

“You can never relax and you always have to give everything. Both myself and Claudio and Jordi (Masip) want to play and we work week after week to do so.

“I think that this idea is good for the team, too, because we’re always ready.”

For the money he'd likely cost, I'm glad.

Rather the rumour of ter Stegen going to City and we go for Hart comes true instead.

I wouldn't mind that tbh, as long as we don't get fleeced. It'd be stupid for Guardiola to get rid of one of their very few home-grown players though.

Guess he will have made that spot on the bench his own now, probably quite fond of it, getting to go and have a front row seat to watch Barca play every week.

Was reading today that an 'anonymous' club has placed a bid. Could that be us I wonder?
