Como and Girona competing for Barcelona defender Eric García
Barcelona center-back Eric García is likely to leave the club this winter, with two options for his next destination.
Details: According to Diario Sport, Como and Girona are both vying for García’s signature in the final days of the transfer window.
Both clubs are prepared to meet Barcelona's €10 million asking price for the Spanish defender. The Catalan club needs to sell García to facilitate a loan deal for Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford.
Selling García would also free up €6 million in Barcelona’s wage bill.
Last season, García had a successful loan spell at Girona. This season, he has made 11 La Liga appearances for Barcelona.
Reminder: Earlier, Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick did not rule out the possibility of Wojciech Szczęsny playing in goal for their match against Benfica.
