Barcelona have received a strong blow before the match against Valencia on May 25 at Pinto Viamarín in the King's Cup final.

The club said on its official Twitter site that Ter Stegen suffered from a pain in the right knee, explaining that the absence of the German goalkeeper depends on the development of the situation of the goalkeeper.

Barcelona are preparing to face Ibar on Sunday in the final round of the Spanish league competition, before they face Valencia in the King's Cup final.

Dutch goalkeeper Yassper Celsen is expected to play in the King's Cup final if Terje Stegen is not recovered.
