Barcelona hopeful of signing Eric Garcia from Manchester City

According to Sport, Barcelona are hopeful of landing the signature of Eric Garcia from Manchester City once Ruben Dias makes the move to the Premier League outfit.

The Blaugrana have been on the trail of Garcia since the end of the previous campaign, but they have failed to negotiate a suitable price with the Cityzens.

Ronald Koeman’s side value their former graduate at around £13.6m, but the Cityzens are looking for at least double of that amount to part ways with the centre-back.

The Mancunian giants are currently on the cusp of landing Dias from Benfica in a deal worth £50m and the Blaugrana are optimistic that can aid their pursuit of Garcia.
