Very known is that the past summer the FC Barcelona tightened to try carry to Eric García and reinforce like this the axis of the defence, the feeblest zone at present of the staff culé. The Manchester City started asking between 20-25 million euros by a player, the youngster canterano Catalan, that finishes links 'citizen' in June of 2021.
The FC Barcelona, logically, decided not paying this price and Eric García remained in Manchester with the hope that, already in the market of winter of 2021, could give the definite jump to the Camp Nou. Well, it seems that the second attempt culé neither will result profitable. And it is that the English would ask now some 15 million euros in return to give off of the footballer to half of season.
And the Barça, sabedor that in July of 2021 Eric García already will be free to sign with the letter of freedom and without paying neither a euro, does not want to fall in the cheat and spend a just money when worse finds the club to economic level for many years.
In this sense, and taking into account that Samuel Umtiti seems already almost recovered of his physical problems, the Barcelona club could try hold with Umtiti, Hammered, Lenglet and Araújo more the help of the quarry and the possible recolocación in punctual moments of Busquets or Of Jong in said zone, as long as there is urgent need.
The Barça walks short of head offices
Ronald Koeman already has handled with three head offices in what it goes of season, and although the Barça has received more goals of which would like him, for now the experiment can not say that it have been a complete fiasco. When they begin to arrive the key parties of the season, however, will be when the Barcelona more notice the fact of not having of a cool defensive saga and competitive to 100%.
Eric García, in spite of his win tremendas to dress the Barcelona T-shirt, will have to expect until summer of 2021 to fulfil his dream to play in the Camp Nou and form part of the first team. This, as long as it keep the decision of the Manchester City to retain to the footballer demanding a price out of the current market, something that seems that like this it will be.
