Reporter: Barcelona and Joan Garcia have no contact, and players will not join Barcelona

May 27th, reporter Oliva confirmed in an interview with Radio MARCA on Monday that Barcelona and Joan Garcia have no contact, and the players will not join Barcelona.

Joan Garcia is regarded by many as the best goalkeeper of La Liga this season, with a clear goal: "Join the Premier League team and become the starting goalkeeper from day one." Arsenal showed strong interest last season and pursued him again this season, but due to the fierce competition in the Gunners goalkeeper position, this may reduce his chances of playing.

Recently, Newcastle has become a very serious choice. The team coached by Eddie Howe will compete in the Champions League and hopes to strengthen the goalkeeper position. This option is attractive to Joan Garcia, both because of the team's prospects and Newcastle's promise to give him a starting position.

Despite rumors that Joan Garcia may join Barcelona, ​​Oliva firmly denied: "He will not play for Barcelona, ​​and all the statements of the club are for face-saving projects. No one has contacted his agent from Barcelona." In addition, the reporter also emphasized that Joan does not consider loan, which makes it more difficult for any team that cannot guarantee his starting position to sign him.

The Spaniards have no intention of negotiating the sale of their young star: "Either pay the termination fee or no talks." This is the management's position, they ask the buyer to pay the 25 million euros stipulated in the contract. The club realizes they will lose a key player, but at least hopes to get a considerable financial return through the transfer.
