When Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Barcelona’s first-choice goalkeeper for a decade now, suffered a patellar tendon rupture again in September, Inaki Pena took over between the posts and the membership persuaded Wojciech Szczesny to return from retirement to supply an skilled backup choice. Nevertheless, issues have modified since, with head coach Hansi Flick lately confirming that Szczesny was now the primary alternative.
Flick is clearly sad with Pena for some purpose, and in keeping with Sport, the 2 have had a dialog a couple of days in the past, which resulted within the goalkeeper being livid with the coach and contemplating the probabilities for leaving the membership. Certainly, Pena sat the final two La Liga video games out on the bench with Szczesny between the posts, a state of affairs unlikely to vary for the match in opposition to Sevilla on Sunday.
The 25-year-old is arguably a superb goalkeeper in his personal proper, and whatever the state of affairs with Flick and Szczesny, maybe its time for him to hunt common game-time elsewhere.
