Overview
- Marc-André ter Stegen shared an Instagram video showing passing drills on grass more than three months after his July 24 back operation.
- The session did not include shot-stopping or diving, indicating he remains in a limited training phase.
- Club expectations reported locally point to a potential match-fitness green light in December or early January.
- His route back to regular minutes is unclear following a preseason demotion from the No. 1 role and a brief loss of the captain’s armband.
- With Joan Garcia out due to a meniscus injury, Hansi Flick has trusted Wojciech Szczesny, and unconfirmed reports suggest ter Stegen could weigh a January loan to secure World Cup match time.
