"It hasn't been too long since Eric Garcia was on the verge of leaving Barcelona. In fact, in January this year, the defender was close to joining Como on a permanent deal. Even the plane tickets were booked for the Spaniard who was slated to move to Italy. However, Hansi Flick made the conscious decision to ask the player to stay and fight for his place in the team."
"The Catalans are more than happy with Garcia's performances and want to renew his contract, which expires in 2027. Romano adds that Barcelona are advancing contract negotiations with the versatile defender, hoping to secure his long-term future at the club. Garcia, after all, ranks among the lowest-paid players in the team, so a new deal could see him bag a handsome pay raise."
Eric Garcia nearly left Barcelona in January, with a proposed permanent move to Como and plane tickets booked, before being asked to stay. One year later he has become an important defender for Barcelona, demonstrating versatility, composure and leadership. PSG have shown interest in the defender, but the decisive factor for his future is contract negotiations with Barcelona. His current deal runs until 2027 and Barcelona want to renew it. Garcia is among the lowest-paid players in the squad, so a new contract would likely include a significant salary increase and reward his progress.
