Be Strong, Captain: Barça's Heartfelt Support for Marc ter Stegen

When the going gets tough, sometimes a simple show of support can make all the difference. That’s exactly what happened when the Barça players took to the field before their midweek clash against Getafe, proudly wearing a t-shirt that read “MOLTA FORÇA CAPITÀ” in Catalan and “BLEIB STARK KAPITÄN” in German—both translating to "BE STRONG, CAPTAIN."


This heartfelt message was directed at their injured goalkeeper, Marc ter Stegen, who recently sustained a serious knee injury during a victory over Villarreal. The crowd at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys cheered on as the players emerged, showing their solidarity with the German international.

Ter Stegen's road to recovery has already begun, following a successful surgery earlier this week. As he starts his comeback, the wave of support hasn’t been limited to the stadium. Across social media, he’s been flooded with well-wishes from teammates, rivals like Athletic Club and Real Sociedad, and even stars such as former teammate Sergi Roberto and Real Madrid’s Thibaut Courtois.

Barça’s message is clear: no matter the challenge, they’re standing strong with their captain.
