Juventus, PSG, Bayern Munich in race for Marc-Andre ter Stegen: Reports
However, reports say that Barca view Ter Stegen as “untouchable” and are keen to extend his current deal next year.
Former Barcelona player Jordi Masip has rated club’s current goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen as the best shot-stopper in the world.
“Well, I’m clearly leaning towards Ter Stegen. For me, he is clearly the best because he encompasses all facets of the game,” said Masip as quoted by Goal via Sport.
“He’s the most complete for my taste. He’s the most complete with the feet and with his game in all areas.

“His performance has been reflected in Barca. He was very young when he arrived and has been progressing. For me he’s the best right now,” he added.
