Eric García is once again one of the most sought-after defenders in the market. With renewed interest from Girona, Real Sociedad, Real Betis, Como, and Tottenham, the FC Barcelona center-back is at the center of a battle that will intensify in the coming weeks. All these clubs see the Catalan defender as an attractive market opportunity to strengthen their defense, while Barça is torn between keeping him as a rotational piece or seeking a profitable exit amid their challenging economic situation.
Despite not having an absolute role in the starting lineup for the Catalan team, García has been positively evaluated by Hansi Flick, who has emphasized his continuity within the project. The German coach believes that his profile fits well with the style he aims to implement. Therefore, the club is considering extending his contract beyond 2026, the expiration date of his current deal.

However, retaining him will not be easy. Girona, where he already shone on loan, aims to bring him back after a historic season. Real Sociedad and Betis have also probed around him, looking to strengthen their defense with players who have been trained at the top level. In Italy, Como has emerged with ambition and wants to incorporate him into their new Serie A project. From England, Tottenham is watching closely, aware that their economic power could tip the scales.
Deco will have to make a crucial decision: profit from García's sale or secure his stay with a new contract. Meanwhile, the player is faced with a dilemma: seek prominence elsewhere or continue to fight for a spot at his childhood club. The summer will determine his fate.
