Marc-Andre ter Stegen 'doesn't like' Real Madrid

Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen has stoked the fire ahead of the new La Liga season by admitting that he 'doesn't like' Real Madrid.

The German, who is currently with his teammates in the United States, made the comments as he answered questions on Barca's rivalries at a UNICEF event in Los Angeles.

Ter Stegen also spoke about Barca's La Liga neighbours Espanyol, claiming that their rivalry is 'great for the city'.

"Madrid is a team I don't like much, and the rivalry with Espanyol is great for a team in the same city," he said.

Barcelona will begin their pre-season against Los Angeles Galaxy on Wednesday.
