Claudio Bravo Open to Barcelona Return
Claudio Bravo, the 41-year-old former FC Barcelona goalkeeper who retired last month, has shown interest in rejoining the club after Marc-André ter Stegen suffered a significant injury.
Ter Stegen’s injury, sustained during Barcelona's 5-1 win over Villarreal, has left the team urgently searching for a replacement.
Ter Stegen was injured shortly before halftime, awkwardly landing while attempting to clear a high cross. He was stretchered off, and medical tests later confirmed a complete rupture of the patellar tendon in his right knee, requiring surgery. This injury will sideline him for an extended period, posing a major setback for Barcelona’s season.
Following this, Bravo has offered to come out of retirement to support his former club. During his time at Barcelona from 2014 to 2016, Bravo made 75 appearances and kept 43 clean sheets. He played a key role in the club’s success, helping secure nine major titles, including the treble in his debut season.
Bravo’s return could provide Barcelona with much-needed stability and experience as they navigate through Ter Stegen’s absence. The club is currently considering its options, and Bravo’s readiness to rejoin may offer a timely solution to their goalkeeping challenge.
