Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen has released an official statement to deny rumours that suggest infidelity is the reason behind his split from his wife Daniela Jehle.
The Germany international has been married to Daniela since 2017, after meeting in 2012, and the pair have two children together, but they announced their split on social media last week.

A bombshell report from Catalunya Radio subsequently claimed that Ter Stegen ended his marriage with Daniela after finding out that she was cheating on him with her personal trainer.
The report also claimed that he has been living at the five-star Grand Hyatt Hotel in Barcelona for the past two months after moving out of their family home.
However, Ter Stegen has vehemently denied such rumours with an official statement on social media.
