Ter Stegen: "Barça? One of the best clubs in the world, a special club. Attending Atletico game? No, I'll be on holidays next week." [zdf]

Yeah, I speak fluent German and watching it live on TV. He never said "Barca is one of the best clubs in the world".

The Atletico part is true, he said he will be on holidays.

It's wrong. He NEVER mentioned Barca in this relation. He said that he goes to one of the best clubs in the world.

The "special club" thing is what the interviewer said. It's wrongly translated though. "Dieser spezieller Verein" = "This particular club" in this context. The interviewer tried to get out of him if he is going "to that particular club from Spain" [that everyone expects].

He was asked something about the World Cup and 2016 Euros.

What was it?

The interviewer asked him how he feels about being left out of the World Cup and how he will try to make the Euro 2016 squad. He gave the usual: "I'm happy for Zieler, the coach decides, I'll try to perform well with my new club, on the international stage as well."

Furthermore, he said that he knows there is a possibility to become the 2nd choice in such a big club and that he wants to perform well to show himself. I start thinking that he won't join Barca because otherwise he wouldn't have said that. As if Pinto could bench him :pinto: :lol:

Yeah, but that was just professional footballer's speech. He also said "that could happen everywhere, I could become 2nd choice at Gladbach, too." :pinto:

He's definitely coming. Everyone knows it. The interviewer didn't give a fuck and just pretended it's a done deal to Barca and Marc kept grinning. :lol:

He did say when asked about Barça that they're one of the best clubs in the world. He just never used the word Barcelona.

god this is so frustrating. Just ask him

will you join B-A-R-C-E-L-O-N-A ?

tie him up and force him for 3 hours to watch Chelsea playing football.

That will get the job done.

Just imagine what he'll say at his first press conference before a match.


Reporter: Marc, you already played 3 games for Barca, how do you feel?

Marc: Who says that I played for Barca? I visited the the Camp Nou since I like stadiums. I will reveal my new club in a few months.

Reporter: But you have already played games for Barca

Marc: I won't say anything regarding my future. I feel happy at my current club and I will join a massive club. That's all I can say.

I'm actually curious why they make such a secret out of it. It must be Barca shutting him up. I don't see a reason why he wouldn't reveal it by his own choice after the last game of the season. Valdes hasn't announced any club either.

Of course it's Barça shutting him up. But I'm actually relieved he already signed the contract. Otherwise I would think that Barça wanted to keep Valdés and not sign anyone.

I read somewhere that the club wants to reveal it at the end of the season since the players could get distracted :facepalm: What they don't really notice is that everyone who follows Barca knows that Marc will join us. It annoys me.
