Impact ter Stegen underwent successful surgery after picking up a hamstring injury against Real Oviedo in late January and has been working through a lengthy recovery. The veteran goalkeeper sounds in good spirits and is moving freely, which is an encouraging sign, but his measured words suggest he is not putting any pressure on himself to rush back before the end of the season. Paulo Gazzaniga continues to hold down the starting spot at Girona in his absence, with Vladyslav Krapyvtsov serving as the backup, although ter Stegen is back in the FC Barcelona facilities to undergo his rehabilitation.
