Ranking the 10 best goalkeepers in the world

3. Marc-Andre ter Stegen - Barcelona

Ter Stegen has been superb since joining Barcelona

At Barcelona, goalkeepers are rarely the centre of attention. For years, Victor Valdes was the undisputed number one at the Camp Nou, and even despite the odd howler, he rarely came under pressure. However, with Barcelona now considerably weaker than they were when Valdes was there at the turn of the decade, there is more scrutiny on ter Stegen, but he seems to be dealing with it extremely well.

He has kept 35 clean sheets in La Liga over the last two seasons and has proven himself to be a fine shot-stopper, and it won’t be long now until he will be taking over Manuel Neuer as Germany’s number one. He is, like almost all the world’s best goalkeepers at the moment, excellent with the ball at his feet, and he fits the ethos of Barcelona. At 27, he should still have time to improve and could become one of Barcelona’s greatest ‘keepers.
