Marc-Andre ter Stegen says he’s feeling great after returning to team training at Barcelona after six months out with a serious knee injury.
[The German goalkeeper rejoined his team-mates at the start of the week](https://www.barcablaugranes.com/2025/3/31/24397675/marc-andre-ter-stegen-takes-part-in-team-training-at-barcelona-for-first-time-since-knee-surgery) and says he’s looking forward to making his comeback.
> “Now, after six months, I’m back training with the team, feeling fitter than ever and with lots of energy. I have a great team around me, I can handle any pressure and I’m eager to play soon, without having a specific date,” he told Bild.
>
> “If I handle the tension and all the aspects of training with the team well, it will give the coach a little push so he knows I’m ready.”
Ter Stegen also spoke about the moment when he knew he’d suffered a serious injury.
> “The first thing I felt was a pull in my thigh. The pain ran through my whole body. When I looked down, I knew instantly it wasn’t just a thigh problem,” he added.
>
> “My knee was in a completely different position than it should be, and it was clear it couldn’t just be put back in place.”
[Hansi Flick spoke about Ter Stegen earlier today](https://www.barcablaugranes.com/2025/4/1/24398666/hansi-flick-talks-marc-andre-ter-stegen-comeback-goalkeeper-returns-to-training-after-knee-surgery) and admits it’s great to have the goalkeeper back in training but refused to put on a date on when he might be ready to play again.
