"No chance": Fàbregas assesses the likelihood of Eric García's transfer

Central defender Eric García is ready to leave the club, and Barcelona is exploring potential destinations for him. One option was Como, but it seems the move is unlikely.

Details: During a pre-match press conference, Cesc Fàbregas stated that the team needs defensive reinforcements, but García’s transfer will not happen.

Quote: "We will sign a central defender, and we are very close to signing a full-back. Eric García will not sign with us. There’s no chance, especially after the goal he scored against Benfica in the Champions League," said Fàbregas.

Notably, García had a successful loan spell with Girona last season. This season, he has made 11 La Liga appearances.

Reminder: Earlier reports indicated that Como’s initial offer was valued at €7 million, which is below Barcelona’s valuation. The bid was rejected, as the Blaugrana are seeking at least €10 million for the Spanish defender’s transfer.
