Barcelona have reinstated Marc-Andre ter Stegen as the team’s captain.
The two parties have resolved a dispute over his medical records following back surgery.
The Germany international had initially refused to sign an authorisation form for LaLiga, resulting in the temporary removal of his captaincy and the opening of disciplinary proceedings.
The matter has now been settled, with the goalkeeper back in his leadership role.
Ter Stegen was temporarily stripped of his captaincy after declining to sign a medical report authorisation for La Liga following his recent surgery. The disagreement escalated into a disciplinary case, further straining relations between the goalkeeper and Barcelona. After agreeing to cooperate and sign the necessary form, the dispute has now been officially closed as per Barcelona’s statement.
On Friday evening, Barcelona announced: “The club announces that the player Marc-Andre ter Stegen has signed the authorisation necessary for the club to send La Liga the medical report relating to his surgery.
“The disciplinary case has been closed and the player is captain of the first team once again with immediate effect.”
