Barcelona have confirmed Marc-Andre ter Stegen has been reinstated as club captain after resolving a dispute over his medical records following back surgery. The Germany international had initially refused to sign an authorisation form for La Liga, resulting in the temporary removal of his captaincy and the opening of disciplinary proceedings. The matter has now been settled, with the goalkeeper back in his leadership role.

Barcelona launched disciplinary action against Marc-Andre ter Stegen and stripped him of the captaincy earlier this week after a dispute over a medical consent form related to his injury. The German goalkeeper has now broken his silence, calling the rumours around his intentions 'unfounded' while expressing willingness to resolve the matter with the club.

Barcelona have officially announced their decision to strip Marc-Andre ter Stegen of the armband, with Ronald Araujo named the new captain for now.
