Barcelona and Germany goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen has spoken about his long-standing competition with Manuel Neuer for the national team's starting spot. In a recent interview, Ter Stegen said, "I might have deserved the opportunity a little more," reflecting on his years as Neuer's understudy.
The 32-year-old has consistently performed at a high level for his club but has often found himself behind Neuer in the international hierarchy. His comments highlight the frustration of a player widely regarded as one of the world's best goalkeepers.
