The latest news from FC Barcelona revolves around Eric García, a 25-year-old defender who is attracting interest from several European clubs despite having a contract until 2031. Tottenham, Aston Villa, Newcastle, Inter, Roma, Fiorentina, Como 1907, and PSG are monitoring his situation following a summer where Barça opted to keep him in the squad.

Barça renewed García's contract in December 2025 for another five seasons, extending his deal until June 30, 2031. This long-term agreement allows Barça to negotiate from a strong position should any of the suitors decide to make an offer.

FC Barcelona keeps Eric García in their plans

The sporting situation also explains why FC Barcelona is not in immediate need to sell. García gained importance during the last season, reaching 150 official matches with the Blaugrana shirt in February 2026.

His ability to play in different positions has been a key factor in keeping him. He can operate as a center-back, right-back, and central midfielder, allowing the coaching staff to use him regularly in the previous season.

This versatility also influenced the market planning. Barça ended the summer without bringing in the center-back they initially sought, deeming the options with García, Andreas Christensen, and Gerard Martín to be sufficient.

The club attempted to sign Ruud Nijstad and made an €8 million offer to Twente, but the Dutch team turned it down. Following this rejection, the sporting management chose not to rush into another defensive signing.

Premier League, Serie A, and PSG monitoring the player

Interest in Eric García spans three markets. Tottenham, Aston Villa, and Newcastle show interest from the Premier League, while Inter, Roma, Fiorentina, and Como are following him from Italy. PSG completes the list of teams keeping an eye on his situation.

Currently, there is no formal offer or specific figure on the table. The key factor in any negotiation remains his contract until 2031, signed after the club decided to secure his stay for an additional five seasons.

This long-term deal also alleviates the pressure to accept a sale. Barça may consider proposals based on their financial importance but does not face a scenario of a final contract year or an urgent renewal.

Internal competition has not diminished his presence in the squad either. García ended last season as one of the players with the most playing time, and the club reinforced that confidence with a lengthy contract extension.

The next move will depend on whether any of the interested clubs turn their observation into a concrete offer. FC Barcelona holds contractual control over Eric García until 2031, meaning any departure will require an offer convincing enough for a club that chose not to strengthen that position this summer.
