Guardiola again left out an Eric García who is still close to Barça

"There is term until the Monday, is truth that want to have to this player here because only we have three-four head offices, but can not say more. Also I have seen the comments of Pep from the City, there is interest, but do not know if we will be able to attain it". With these esclarecedoras words confirmed Ronald Koeman that so much he like the FC Barcelona are trying to close the signing of Eric García​ for this same summer.

The Barcelona carry time after the central Barcelonan, but by the moment have not been able to arrive to an agreement with the Manchester City. The English ask much more of what the Barça is had to pay by a player that finishes agreement in 2021 and would arrive free inside a year. Nevertheless, the Catalans have gone up his offer recently to try that it arrive already, since it is what Koeman wishes. Now the ball is in the roof of the Emirates Stadium, and will be the leaders 'cityzens' those who decide.

Guardiola Already announced that Eric García would not be still in the City

But while all solves for well or for bad, Pep Guardiola has decided to do without Eric, that has not gone in in the announcement in the last two crashes of the City. This Saturday, the defender was not in the tie of the ones of Manchester against the Leeds United to domicile. The trainer of Sant Pedor preferred to have Ruben Dias, recently arrived of the Benfica by almost 70 million euros. The luso formed couple with Aymeric Laporte, but could not première with victory.

Before the dispute of this commitment, the trainer of the team 'Sky Blue' justified the absence of the Spanish and ensured that it was touched. "Eric has some small annoyances in the isquiotibiales and can not be" said for 'Sky Sports'. Although it can be true, the reality is that his possible exit to the Barcelona could be the main cause that Pep have left to have he and was betting by other players for this place.

It is necessary to remember that the own Guardiola recognised that the culés want to to the player and that everything will depend of the agreement to the that arrive the blaugrana and the 'cityzens'. "I do not know exactly what goes to happen. I know that he wants to go back to live in Barcelona, know that the Barça wants it, but think that there is not agreement between the clubs. This is what know right now, so I do not know how goes to finish", communicated in press conference the ex barcelonista.

The future of Eric depends of the City

The market of signings closes this 5 October, by what the deal will have to arrive in the next hours. The proposal of the culés is upper to the 10 million euros that offered does weeks, but is lejísimos of the 30 that asked the City. For this reason, the international Spanish will not play in the Camp Nou unless his club decide to go down his pretences. In the next hours will see if Eric turns into new player of the Barça or if it has to expect a year to be it.
