Barcelona need to make a sale this month to sign Marcus Rashford, and currently the most likely exit is that of Eric Garcia. The defender, who is well down the pecking order in Hansi Flick's plans, is wanted by Como and Girona, and it is the latter who are favorites to bring him back to Montilivi.
Garcia spent last season on loan at Girona and made a very good impression during his time at the Catalan club. As such, they have been pursuing a permanent deal ever since, and although they missed out on the deal last summer, it is looking increasingly likely that it will happen in January.
According to MD, talks are taking place between Barcelona and Girona over a deal for Garcia, and the latter is willing to offer 10 million euros to secure a deal.
Barcelona would prefer to part ways with Ansu Fati this month as Rashford would replace him like-for-like in Flick's squad. However, given that there is not enough interest in his services at this stage, selling Garcia seems to be the solution that needs to happen.
