Girona was not overly pressure during the winter transfer window – they only signed Arthur Melo on loan, while the Pau Lopez deal was demolished. However, they had hoped to do business further.
Girona had reunited their interest in Eric Garcia, which they did not permanently signed last summer after a successful loan game the previous season. However, they missed again, and sports director Quique Carcel revealed that it was Hansi film that blocked a deal, according to relevant.
“Last summer I said we loved him. Again, we tried to record him, but he plays at a good level in Barcelona and there they decided not to let him leave. He is a Barcelona player, they count on him, they showed him that he was important. There were times when he also wanted to come and they tried it, but Hansi Flick said no. And it's the most normal thing. “
Carcel also opened other failed arrangements, including a possible output for Loan for midfielder Jhon Solis.
“We thought it wasn't a bad option for Solis to go on loan because he doesn't get too many minutes, but the coach trusts him and asked us that if he left him a replacement. He had quite a few proposals that did not bother … and on Monday at six o'clock in the afternoon we received a phone call from Porto, who wanted to loan him with an option to buy. There was a negotiation and for me it was very stressful because I have to tell Michel that he could leave.
“And there was a moment of tension that afternoon because the coach told me he didn't want anyone to leave. And in the end we decided that the proposal was not suitable without having the response time on the last day of the transfer window. “
