FC Barcelona is preparing for next season, with the defense being the area expected to undergo the most changes. Deco is focusing on improving this position and has several plans in mind. One decision is already clear: a current player will not remain at the club and will be sold permanently\u2014Eric Garc\u00eda.<\/p>\n
At 23 years old, Garc\u00eda has a contract with Barcelona until 2026, but the plan appears to be for him to be sold next summer. He is not a key player for Hansi Flick, who has already approved the sale. While Garc\u00eda had a strong season on loan at Girona last year, he has only played 531 minutes across La Liga and the Champions League this season. He is well-regarded, and Barcelona expects to generate a good sum from his sale.<\/p>\n
Recently, Fichajes.net revealed that Eric Garc\u00eda is being targeted by two top Premier League clubs, Chelsea and Newcastle. Barcelona is open to negotiating his departure for a fee close to 25 million euros. Garc\u00eda made a positive impression in England, making it a possible destination for him, although Girona is also interested in re-signing him.<\/p>\n
Selling Garc\u00eda would allow Barcelona to secure a decent sum for a player who isn\u2019t a key figure under the coach. It would also create space in the squad and provide financial relief during a challenging economic period.<\/p>\n
Deco has everything mapped out. If Garc\u00eda leaves, he will need a replacement. Italian outlet SportItalia reports that Jonathan Tah is set to join Barcelona. Tah\u2019s contract expires in 2025, and although several clubs, including Inter, Milan, and Juventus, have shown interest, he has reportedly decided to move to Camp Nou.<\/p>\n
The reports suggest that Tah has already reached an agreement with Barcelona, a detail shared with the clubs tracking him in Italy. Deco, who is planning ahead, believes that the 29-year-old German center-back is ready for a move to a top-tier club. A few weeks ago, Deco traveled to Germany to meet with both Tah and his representative, Pini Zahavi, to discuss his potential transfer to Barcelona, with both sides reportedly satisfied with the outcome.Jonathan Tah\u2019s price makes him an incredible bargain: \u20ac0. His contract expires next season, and he had attracted interest from several top European clubs. Along with Barcelona and Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and other Italian teams also pursued him, but he ultimately decided to join the Barcelona project. Hansi Flick\u2019s support played a crucial role in this decision, backing the move to Camp Nou.<\/p>\n
Barcelona\u2019s plan is straightforward: sell Eric Garc\u00eda and replace him with Jonathan Tah, all without spending any transfer fee.<\/p>\n
