It is now a certainty: Joan Garcia will be number 1 to keep the goals of FC Barcelona for the exercise 2025-2026. Recruited for 25 million euros at Espanyol, the 24 -year -old Spanish porter signed until 2031 and already imposed himself as the holder in the mind of Hansi Flick. In advance on the official resumption of the Pro group, he has been training for several weeks with Barça preparers, determined to seize this opportunity. “I am here to progress as a goalkeeper, to win and do great things with Barça”he said during his presentation.
Its rise in power upsets the hierarchy. Last year, Barça had to compose with the interim of Szczęsny and Pena during the long absence of Ter Stegen. This time, the leaders want to stabilize the position with a young and reliable profile. Deco held a decisive meeting with his agent Juanma López and his lawyer Ramón Valencia to finalize the latest administrative details. A few days before the recovery under the orders of Hansi Flick, Joan Garcia is indeed installed to start the season as a holder according to information from Diario Sport.
