Barcelona demands to stop the defender’s departure in January

Since leaving the club at the end of a loan spell last season, Girona have made it clear publicly and privately that they would be happy to have Eric García back at the club. He is one of the players that Barcelona would consider leaving in the January transfer market.

Although coach Hansi Flick wants to keep Garcia unless he gets reinforcements, the club will let him go if they receive the right offer. MD reports that Girona is willing to pay around €10 million for García, but Barcelona does not believe it will be enough. Talks are likely to drag on into the final days of the transfer market, with both sides looking to put pressure on the clock. García is happy to return to Girona, but also happy to remain at Blaugrana for the rest of the season.

In early January it was reported that Barcelona and Girona had reached an agreement for García, but that his departure depended on the future of Ronald Araujo. With the Uruguayan apparently staying, that should leave Barcelona free to sanction a deal for an out-of-contract player in 18 months. Still, Flick can argue that unless the fee is enough to bring in reinforcements, Barcelona will gain much more from a sale now than in the summer.
