Legendary former Germany international Lothar Matthäus has made an intriguing proposal to one of Europe’s top clubs — Manchester City. According to the pundit, Barcelona’s experienced goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen should be one of the English giant’s top transfer targets.
Matthäus stated that City currently does not fully trust its main keeper, Ederson. "I don’t know exactly what their plans are. But in my opinion, Ederson is not a 100% ideal option for the club. If Manchester City is looking for a stronger and more reliable goalkeeper, they should seriously consider ter Stegen," Matthäus told reporters.
The seasoned football analyst also emphasized that ter Stegen, at his current level, could play at the top level for another 3–4 years. "Ter Stegen is well known not just in Germany but throughout Europe for his consistency and professionalism. His stability at Barcelona and composure in difficult matches make him a perfect choice," Matthäus added.
Indeed, ter Stegen’s performances in recent seasons have been widely praised by football experts and fans alike. His reflexes, positioning, and shot-stopping ability place him among the best goalkeepers in the world.
As Manchester City looks to strengthen its squad ahead of the new season, Matthäus’ suggestion might be exciting and promising news for the club’s supporters.
It’s also worth noting that City manager Pep Guardiola might be seeking new energy and fresh blood. Ter Stegen is seen as an ideal candidate in this regard.
Such unexpected transfer rumors always become hot topics in the football world. So far, neither Manchester City nor Barcelona has made an official statement. However, following Matthäus’ comments, it’s likely the club’s management will give it serious thought.
Perhaps one of next season’s biggest Premier League transfers will follow the path suggested by the Munich legend. Time will tell! Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
