Barcelona have struck gold with Joan Garcia, and just over six months have been enough for the new signing to prove his worth. In just his first season at the club, the youngster is already making a case to be called the best goalkeeper in Spain, and is at the doorstep of a national team call-up. Further, he has already won the Catalans multiple games single-handedly, with his best ever performance coming under pressure against his former club Espanyol.

This move is not just a routine renewal, as within the club, there is a growing belief that the 18-year-old represents a long-term investment, especially at a time when the youth setup is undergoing subtle changes. His importance has increased further following the departure of Pedro 'Dro' Fernandez, with club officials now seeing Hernandez as the ideal profile to step into that role and grow within the structure.

According to a recent report from Mundo Deportivo, young winger Dani Rodriguez has been linked with a possible loan move to Rangers. At just 20 years of age, Dani has become one of the standout performers for Barça Atletic, attracting attention from clubs across Europe.

Paris Saint-Germain have stepped up their efforts to secure the signing of Pedro 'Dro' Fernández, as the French champions look to move quickly and beat growing competition. According to a recent update from SPORT, PSG are determined to close the deal as soon as possible, aware that interest from Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund remains very much alive. It is said that the Ligue 1 club do not want to risk losing control of the situation and have already taken decisive steps behind the scenes.

Barcelona are well aware that signing a left-footed centre-back will be a priority in the upcoming transfer window. The club's sporting department has been analysing several profiles over recent months, and Schlotterbeck was one of the names that appeared on their internal shortlist. His strong performances for Borussia Dortmund this season, combined with his international experience, initially made him an attractive candidate. Another factor working in Schlotterbeck's favour was his existing relationship with Hansi Flick.

"We wanted the elections to be held as soon as possible, but we also wanted the chosen date to guarantee maximum participation. "From a competitive standpoint, we don't like it, but we are ready to go for this opportunity. If there is a game that day, we ask that all seats at Spotify Camp Nou be made available to members,"

Barcelona are reportedly close to signing young Dutch defender Juwensley Onstein from Jong Genk in the January transfer window. Reporter Matteo Moretto has posted an update on X and says "an agreement between the clubs is close" and that Onstein has already given the transfer the green light. Onstein is an 18-year-old left-footed central defender who has been linked with a move to AC Milan, but it now seems that Barcelona are set to win the race for the defender.
