A top sports psychologist has spoken to Goal about the German goalkeeper, who is enduring a difficult time with Barcelona in the opening weeks of the season.
Marc Andre ter Stegen could be benched by Barcelona this weekend. Claudio Bravo is back in contention and coach Luis Enrique revealed on Friday that the Chilean had trained all week. So whoever starts at Sevilla in La Liga on Saturday, the Asturian coach added, will be there on merit.
Ter Stegen has had a tough time in the opening weeks of the season and Jose Maria Buceta (one of Spain's leading sports psychologists and a mentor to Barca psychologist Joaquin Valdes) says Luis Enrique must handle the German's situation with care to avoid a severe blow to his confidence.
