Barcelona is a hot spot because of sway or losing the final goalkeeper

Espanyol goalkeeper Juan Garcia is hoping to finalize his next stop as soon as possible, and the transfer rumors surrounding him have also entered a critical moment. Although Barcelona insisted on pursuing the Spanish goalkeeper, he also received invitations from the Premier League, with Newcastle United becoming the latest and most sincere suitor. This is basically recognized by his parent team, Espanyol Club.

Currently, the 25 million euro termination clause in Garcia's contract will become the key. According to Spanish Radio on Sunday, Barcelona has reached a preliminary agreement with the player's agent. However, there are still complex factors in Barcelona's layout in the goalkeeper position. The club is still trying to convince Polish goalkeeper Szczesny to renew his contract, and this move directly affects the future of German Menterstegen.

One of the main goals of Barcelona's introduction of Garcia was to put pressure on Ter Stegen to make him consider leaving the team. It is reported that Ter Stegen hopes to join a club that can ensure stable playing time in order to prepare for the 2026 World Cup - this may be his last chance to participate in the national team competition as a main player. But the problem is that the German goalkeeper has not yet made clear whether he is willing to leave the Camp Nou, which makes Garcia's transfer full of uncertainty.

For Juan Garcia, what he longs for is a stable chance of playing from the beginning of the season. If he continues to fall into competition with Ter Stegen, or even be rented out (Betis once rumored to be interested), it is not the result he expected.

Espanyol: He is more inclined to join Newcastle

Espanyol has a calm attitude towards this matter. Team coach Manuel Gonzalez made it clear in an interview with Galicia Radio recently: "I don't really believe he will join Barcelona. Although I won't cut my hands down to make a bet, it's almost the same." He also added: "Maybe he has agreed, but the club has not told me anything."

From the perspective of Espanyol, they prefer to believe that Garcia will eventually go to the Premier League, especially Newcastle, who has just entered the Champions League. The English club has recently joined the battle strongly and is regarded as the next player with the most likely signing of the potential goalkeeper.

In addition, Garcia himself also said in an interview that he would make a decision that is "most beneficial to his future" and admitted that some things are not entirely under his control. This statement is also interpreted as a strategic speech, which not only maintains an open attitude but also leaves room for various possibilities.
