Barcelona is not expected to make further signing sessions this summer, but there is still an important company that needs to be done. Sales are required for a number of players who are registered with La Liga, and moreover, contract discussions will take place with various First Team stars.
An agreement about a new deal with Jules Kounde has recently been completed, Sporting Director Deco continues to other players. And two that are classified as priorities for Barcelona are Frenkie de Jong and Eric Garcia.
Both players have no contract more than 12 months, so it is essential that new conditions have been agreed in the coming weeks. With regard to De Jong, discussions with his new representatives are expected to take place soon, and this can also be the case for Eric.
It was previously reported that Eric had been close to an agreement about a new contract, but the process had been slow. According to MD, both parties will soon look for a resolution, where the plan is that the 24-year-old defender will stay in the Catalan club for years.
Barcelona wants to sell at least one center-back this summer, although Hansi Flick has made it clear that he does not want Eric to go. Just like Kounde, he can play on both right back and in the central defense, and he appreciates this versatility.
Barcelona expects it will not be problems reaching an agreement with Eric, although it may not come for a few weeks. They are aware that the player is happy in Catalonia, and would be his preference to stay in the Flick team for a while. For now it is still to be seen whether that turns out to be the case.
