Despite having played a considerate amount of matches this season, Eric Garcia’s prominence at Barcelona is expected to drop in the coming months. He’s been used predominantly as a midfielder, but with Frenkie de Jong and Gavi now back from long-term injuries, his minutes will almost certainly be reduced going forward.
Garcia was someone that Barcelona considered selling during the summer, but in the end, no exit was found. Things could be different in 2025, and according to Superdeporte (via ED), Real Sociedad are considering a move for the 24-year-old defender next summer, when he would only have one year left on his contract.
If Garcia does not sign a new deal before the end of the season, he will almost certainly be moved on by Barcelona next summer. It remains to be seen whether Real Sociedad’s interest results in a bid, while it would be no surprise if Girona also re-entered the bidding, after they failed to sign him in the summer.
