Barca looking to take one of Pep's players

He is 19, he has a bright future ahead of him and he is a centre-back who can also play at right back. All of these things have caught Barca's attention. 

'ESPN' reports that the La Liga outfit really like Garcia. So much so that the Catalans have reportedly even made a move to try and sign the Man City footballer. 

The source says that Barca asked recently about Eric Garcia. They wanted to know whether City were willing to sell him. 

They did not even think twice at the Etihad: they told Barca that the defender is not for sale. He is one of City's players for the future. 

Eric Garcia's Man City contract runs until 2022. In fact, the club counts on him beyond that date and has been working on his new contract for a few months. 

At Barcelona, they understand that his signing. this source explains, will be complicated at least this summer because of the COVID-19 crisis. Therefore, they will try and get hold of him in future windows, not this summer. Despite City's refusal to sell him, the Spanish side will keep an eye on Eric Garcia. 

You have to remember that Barca know very well what Eric Garcia is capable of. And the thing is, before he left for Man City, the footballer was playing for Barca's age group teams. It was in 2017 when he moved from Spain to England. It remains to be seen whether the Catalans will be able to bring Garcia back to the club.
