After a first stretch of the season in which he started six of the first nine days of LaLIga, Eric García has gone into ostracism with FC Barcelona. For this reason, the club and the player are open to listening to offers in January

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The days of Eric García in the FC Barcelona could be explained. As it confirms 'SPORT', the central already knows in the list of transferibles for the wintry market and will not block his exit if it arrives a good offer to the offices of the club in January. After a first stretch of the season in where Xavi Hernández explained a lot with him forced by the multiple drops by injury, the reinicio of the competitions after the stop mundialista has condemned him to the ostracism.

Eric only has seen action in one of the last six parties of the Barça. 60 minutes in the crash in front of the Intercity (3-4) confirmed his bad moment with a very toneless presentation in Alicante. Neither in League (acting in the last four days) neither in the Supercopa (no ingresó in the semifinal in front of the Betis) has been able to play after the return of Ronald Araújo and the comeback of Andreas Christensen that has recovered the confidence from the World-wide.

With a value of current market in Transfermarkt of 18 million euros, the Barça expects to do box with the traspaso of the central in winter. The culés him ficharon to 'cost zero' in the summer of 2021 and could traspasarle by a mount near to the 20 'kilos', although a cession also could be an alternative. The Catalan has agreement until June of 2026 and, although his wage is low (€1.4m to the year), free a contingent in the staff does not come badly thinking in the possibility of fichar a forward this month.

By his part, Xavi perhaps yes see like a problem the exit of Eric. Further of his low state of form, the technician egarense has the central in front of a very demanding calendar. Besides, with the retreat of Gerard Hammered, the club has four head offices for the rest of the season, explaining to Jules Koundé that in the 2022/23 has worked better like right side.

The numbers of Eric García in the season

The player of 22 years adds a goal and an assistance in 14 apparitions with the Barça (893 minutes). The defender was of more to less in the season, being headline in turns it of pre-season by United States and in six of the first nine dates of LaLiga, where the culés alone fit 4 goals (three of them in the Classical). Precisely, his performance in Santiago Bernabéu was the beginning of his bajón, but considering his youth and low index card will not be difficult to find interesting offers this month by the ex head office of Manchester City.
