Eric Garcia to Barcelona

[kaz7]

I have only been honest, even if Barca had limitless finances like City, they'd always be in for a return of one of their own - particularly a blue chip prospect like Garcia

But having billions in the bank is no guarantee of footballing success, City have also benefitted from a management team made of Barca principles to shape the club. That is the difference, being mismanaged (By Bartomeu & Rosell) vs led (Like under Lapora) - fortunately it's a democratic club where new leadership can be voted in by members, even when they attempt to subvert that democracy like now

Finances are a mess but it will improve with true leadership/management because it still remains the highest revenue generating club in football. It helps that young talents across the globe still dream of one day wearing blaugrana, even if Leo were to ultimately depart

You are an excellent troll, many could learn from you

Can we not just sell him to Girona for 500k just to take the piss?

maybe Girona could then have a 20 million euro buy out inserted in the contract....

Suggest you do a bit of research on FFP

I think this is less a case of Garcia wanting to leave City and more Garcia wanting to join Barcelona. If Barcelona weren't an option his contract would have been extended.

Oh dear!

Barcelona haven't got €10mill.

by Sport via Le 10 Sport, Freixa reasoned: "Eric Garcia wants to come to Barcelona and that is why he did not renew his contract with his club.

"The best option will be to come from June 30, when he will be free.

"It was an act of responsibility to say no now because we had to pay a transfer of 8 or 10 million (euros) and we know the current state of the payroll."

Can we rename the thread to 'has he gone yet'. Bloody tiresome this saga.
