Szczęsny rates Barcelona competition with Peña

Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen is set to remain at the club beyond the summer, according to reports.

The German international had been linked with a move away from the Camp Nou, with Bayern Munich and Chelsea among the clubs said to be interested in signing him. However, it is now understood that ter Stegen has agreed to a new contract with Barcelona that will keep him at the club until 2025.

The news will come as a blow to Arsenal, who were reportedly interested in signing ter Stegen if he left Barcelona. The Gunners are in need of a new goalkeeper, with Bernd Leno and Aaron Ramsdale both failing to convince Mikel Arteta.

Ter Stegen's decision to stay at Barcelona is a boost for the club, who are looking to rebuild under new manager Xavi. The German is one of the best goalkeepers in the world, and his presence will be a major asset to the team.

Barcelona are also closing in on the signing of Andreas Christensen from Chelsea. The Danish defender is out of contract at the end of the season and is expected to join Barcelona on a free transfer.

Christensen's arrival will further strengthen Barcelona's defense, which has been a problem area for the club in recent seasons. The Dane is a versatile defender who can play at center-back or right-back.

Barcelona are also interested in signing Cesar Azpilicueta from Chelsea. The Spanish defender is also out of contract at the end of the season and is expected to leave Stamford Bridge.

Azpilicueta is a experienced defender who has won multiple trophies with Chelsea. He would be a valuable addition to Barcelona's squad.

Barcelona are looking to make a number of signings this summer as they look to rebuild under Xavi. The club has been linked with a number of players, including Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappe and Robert Lewandowski.
