Ter Stegen talks about the future of Frenkie De Jong
The FC Barcelona has undergone a resounding change in sports, great fault of this is the good level of men like Mark Ter Stegen. The German goalkeeper has once again met his best version, positioning himself as a clear leader on and off the pitch.
This circumstance has made him a true authoritative voice, that's why you have to be very attentive to each of his words. In fact, He recently gave an exclusive interview to his colleagues at ESPN, in which he has dealt with various current affairs.
One of them has been the future of his partner Frenkie De Jong, whose continuity in the culé club has been in question for a long time. In this sense, Ter Stegen it has been very clear:
“I hoped it would stay because, al final, this is the type of player i want on my team. Of course, there were a lot of rumors and discussions and whatever, but i'm glad you're here. I think someday I'll put something here to keep it here forever, forever, and i hope it's here for a long time”.
De Jong was not the only one praised by Ter Stegen
The Dutch midfielder was not the only one receiving praise from Ter Stegen. Pedri Y Gavi, the fashionable couple FC Barcelona and the Spanish team also had an important gap in the words of their goalkeeper:
“They are working individually with videos and that is what I want because, al final, it doesn't matter if you have 30 O 18 years. you want to improve and progress in what you do. I don't want them to be relaxed by what they are achieving, which is crazy and I'm so happy for them. But, Of course, they have a responsibility at this young age to the team and to themselves. cuidense, sleep well… those are the little details. and i admit it, It feels like they've been in this business for a long time.”.
Finally, wanted to influence Gavi: “He is as aggressive in training as in games.. He doesn't care if the guy next to him is six feet tall, fight for every ball, which is nice to see. This is what we need and that's why it's very different from the types of players we had before.. that's why it's very, very important for the team and for the group”, concludes.
