Eric García has had a difficult start to the season at FC Barcelona. Between injuries and suspensions, the player has not managed to make a place for himself in Hansi Flick's team and his participation could be considerably reduced after the return of the injured players to the first team.
In fact, the youth player has played more as a pivot than as a centre-back, his natural position, and given the numerous alternatives for the Catalans in this area of the field, his name is beginning to be linked to several First Division teams.
Eric's two 'girlfriends' in LaLiga
According to what was reported by the newspaper 'Superdeporte', Real Sociedad would need to shore up their rearguard and would be more than interested in acquiring the services of the '24' in the winter market. In addition, Girona would also look favourably on his return and would also try to sign him in January, although the San Sebastian side would lead the 'bidding'. Whatever the possible destination of the defender, the only certainty is that the operation will be closed via loan.
The duo formed by Pau Cubarsí and Iñigo Martínez is becoming more and more consolidated, while Ronald Araújo and Andreas Christensen are facing the final weeks of their recoveries and could soon leave the infirmary, leaving García without a place in the centre of the defence.
In addition, the Blaugranas would need to make room for salaries for Olmo and Pau Víctor until the end of the season, so the sum of these factors would end up facilitating the departure of an Eric who would begin to have his hours counted in Barcelona.
