Ter Stegen will be Germany's No.1 at the Confederations Cup
The Barça stopper is one of three goalkeepers called up by Germany
Bayern's Manuel Neuer will not be in Russia for the tournament
Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen has been chosen by Germany coach Joachim Low to form part of the squad for this summer's Confederations Cup in Russia.
Ter Stegen is one of three goalkeepers selected by Low, with Bayern Munich's Manuel Neuer not among them. That suggests that the Barça stopper will be the starting goalkeeper at the competition.
Germany are in a group with Australia, Chile and Cameroon.
