Here comes! Barcelona activates Joan Garcia s liquidated damages next Tuesday. The Little Lion s departure has been a must

On June 8, L. Miguelsanz, deputy editor-in-chief of Spain's Daily Sports, confirmed that Barcelona will activate Joan Garcia's liquidated damages clause next Tuesday local time, bringing the best goalkeeper of La Liga last season to the Camp Nou Stadium. This also means that the red and blue career of Barcelona captain and main goalkeeper Ter Stegen is about to come to an end.

Barcelona won the domestic triple-champion titles in La Liga, Spanish Super League and Spanish Cup last season, and entered the Champions League semi-finals. However, the goal of Inter Milan lost in the Champions League semi-finals was pierced by 7 degrees, which made Barcelona's senior management and coaching staff deeply realize the importance of an excellent goalkeeper. Although Szczesny's performance is remarkable, Inter goalkeeper Sommer's performance has become the key to the outcome of the game. So in the goalkeeper position, the Red and Blues hope to strengthen. The 24-year-old Espanyol goalkeeper Joan Garcia is regarded as the best candidate.

In last season's La Liga, Joan Garcia started all 38 games and contributed 145 wonderful saves, ranking first among all La Liga goalkeepers. His height of 1.91 meters, agility and outstanding goal line skills are all impressive, and his excellent attacking ability can also perfectly integrate into Flick's high-level tactical system. Of course, Joan Garcia, who joined the Espanyol youth training system at the age of 15, publicly stated that she would be loyal to the team, and the Spanish fans were also resentful of the loan-based main goalkeeper to turn to his arch-rival Barcelona. Even so, the financial difficulties faced by the Spaniards made them very much need the penalty worth 25 million euros.

For Joan Garcia, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join a wealthy family, and the offer given by Barcelona is the best solution among his many choices. So, although Barcelona is Catalonia's mortal enemy, Joan Garcia still has no hesitation. Because he also knew very well that there would be no such store after passing through this village.

It is worth mentioning that the Spanish media previously said that Barcelona signed Joan Garcia as a future reserve talent, and the latter will be trained on loan in the new season. But the famous reporter Romano said that Barcelona did not consider lending Garcia, but regarded it as a key player in the first team's immediate combat power. In other words, the 24-year-old Spanish U21 international goalkeeper is likely to become Barcelona's main goalkeeper in the new season. The news of

is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Barcelona captain Ter Stegen. Last season, he suffered a serious injury and was almost reimbursed for the season. Although he made a comeback early at the end of the season, Barcelona still trusted Szczesny in key games, which made the Little Lion very dissatisfied. Now, Barcelona's move to sign Joan Garcia is undoubtedly an expulsion order to him.

In fact, Ter Stegen has already had a very tense relationship with Barcelona chairman Laporta and head coach Frick. At the celebration of Barcelona's La Liga title last season, Ter Stegen, as the captain, was frustrated because of insufficient playing time, refused to speak to the fans and had a fierce debate with Laporta and Frick. Now Barcelona's senior management and coaching staff agree that Ter Stegen's departure from the Camp Nou is the best choice. Because if he wants to play in the US, Canada and Mexico World Cup next summer, he must play as the main player, and Barcelona now obviously doesn't want to give him this opportunity.
