Ter Stegen Nears Ajax Loan Move
24 Jul
Summary
- Ter Stegen is close to finalizing a season-long loan to Ajax.
- Barcelona will pay most of the goalkeeper's salary.
- The loan must be completed before July 31 for Conference League registration.
FC Barcelona captain Marc-Andre ter Stegen is reportedly on the verge of completing a season-long loan transfer to AFC Ajax. Following further progress in negotiations, a deal is expected to be finalized in the coming days.
As talks advance, Ter Stegen is anticipated to miss Barcelona's pre-season camp in England, which begins on Monday and concludes on August 3rd. He is expected to remain behind to finalize the terms of his move to Ajax.
A key aspect of the agreement involves the distribution of Ter Stegen's wages. Ajax is expected to cover a minimal portion, slightly over 10%, while Barcelona will retain responsibility for the majority of his salary.
The deadline for registering Ter Stegen is approaching, with Ajax aiming to secure his presence before July 31. This would allow him to participate in the UEFA Conference League third qualifying round, provided Ajax advances past their current tie. Ajax begins their domestic league campaign on August 9th and hopes for Ter Stegen's availability.
