Three teams want to sign 24-year-old Barcelona defender – Report | OneFootball

FC Barcelona capped off a triumphant season by securing a domestic treble under Hansi Flick’s debut campaign, a remarkable achievement that sets the bar high for the future. As the club looks to build on this momentum, tough decisions and strategic moves in the transfer market are already in motion.

There are a few players in the squad who have hardly enjoyed prominence under Hansi Flick this season and this list includes the likes of Ansu Fati, Pau Victor and Pablo Torre. The trio could be on the exit ramp this season and the team looks to make space for new signings.

Now, as per Fichajes, one other player who is generating interest is Eric Garcia with three clubs interested in him: Real Sociedad, Como and Girona. The 24-year-old has already played for the latter, spending a season on loan under Michel.

The Swiss-Knife

Eric Garcia has emerged as one of the most important squad players for Hansi Flick this season. He has been used like a Swiss-Knife, operating in multiple roles including central defense, right-back and defensive midfield.

The Spaniard’s game has improved and he seems to have a better understanding of his own strengths and weaknesses, which has helped him showcase a better version of himself to the Barcelona fans this season. Understandably, he has the crowd’s support behind him.

Players like Eric are hard to find in the market, irrespective of how much you are willing to pay. The Catalan defender doesn’t complain about game time and does the job wherever and whenever asked of him and it is clear that Flick values the same.

Not for sale

In an ideal world, Barcelona should not be considering any kind of offer for the Spanish defender. Eric’s importance over a course of a season cannot be understated and there are very few who understand the club better than him.

Eric Garcia may not always grab headlines, but his versatility, reliability, and deep-rooted understanding of the club make him an invaluable asset to Barcelona. In a market where players like him are rare, parting ways would be more than a gamble; it would be a loss. Whether the Blaugrana choose to cash in or hold firm, Garcia’s story at Camp Nou may still have more chapters to write.
