Jonathan Tah and Eric García could play key roles in the upcoming transfer market for Barcelona. The German center-back, whose contract with Bayer Leverkusen ends in June, is on the verge of becoming a new Barcelona player at no cost. His potential arrival would be a solid reinforcement for the defense, but it would also complicate the situation for several players, including the Catalan defender.
Eric García, on the way out
The Catalan club has several players in the center-back position, making it challenging to distribute playing time evenly. With Ronald Araújo and Pau Cubarsí as defensive pillars, the experience of Íñigo Martínez, and the presence of Andreas Christensen, the squad would be well covered in that area. Tah's addition would increase competition even further, significantly reducing Eric García's chances of securing a spot in the team's plans.
The young defender, who could return to Girona, has shown good performances this season, and his continuity at the Catalan club could be a viable option. Barcelona would not oppose his permanent departure if an interesting offer arrives. With a contract running until 2026, his future will largely depend on the decisions made by the board regarding the defense restructuring.
Tah's signing is almost a done deal, and with that, Eric García's opportunities to return to Camp Nou plummet. In this scenario, leaving the club seems the most logical choice to prevent an overcrowded defense.
