Manchester United plans to increase the salary conditions for defender Eric García to secure his transfer from FC Barcelona. Manchester United's strategy is to revamp their defense.

As reported by El Nacional on September 14, 2026, the English board is willing to make a financial effort at the request of coach Michael Carrick, although Barcelona's management does not authorize his departure after renewing his contract until June 2031.

Michael Carrick's Defensive Versatility Search at Manchester United

Michael Carrick's interest in the Spanish international, capped 22 times, lies in his ability to play both as a center-back and a right-back. In the Red Devils' defense, the 25-year-old player would compete with Lisandro Martínez, Ayden Heaven, Harry Maguire, Leny Yoro, and Matthijs de Ligt, while offering an additional option on the right flank alongside Noussair Mazraoui and Diogo Dalot.

The defender joined FC Barcelona on a free transfer in July 2021 and has a market value of €40.00 million on Transfermarkt. However, the asking price set by Barcelona's board ranges between €50 and 55 million to start negotiations.

FC Barcelona's Contractual Hurdle and PSG's Competition

Manchester United's planned operation faces resistance in Barcelona. With a contract until 2031, the Catalan club is not under financial pressure to sell the player during the 2026-2027 season, reducing the likelihood of the British proposal's success in January.

Additionally, Paris Saint-Germain remains a key competitor to the English club in securing the defender's services. The French club is evaluating the defender's situation to strengthen Luis Enrique's squad, as the coach previously managed the player during his time with the Spanish national team.

Manchester United's executives plan to hold an informal meeting with the player's agents in November 2026 to assess García's willingness to return to the Premier League. If they receive a positive response from García's representatives, Manchester United will submit the first formal offer of €50 million to Barcelona's offices during the first week of December 2026.
