Barcelona Trying to Secure Funds to Pay Release Clause Fee of Priority Summer Target: Reports
- Barcelona is pursuing Espanyol goalkeeper Joan Garcia and must raise €25 million to pay his release clause this summer.
- The transfer is delayed due to Barcelona’s efforts to secure funds, including possibly taking a bank loan, though an agreement with Garcia is finalized.
- Garcia, aged 24, played all 38 league games last season and helped Espanyol secure LaLiga survival with eight clean sheets.
- Barcelona, guided by new leadership, plans to make Garcia their initial acquisition for the 2025/26 season and intends to find a replacement for Marc-André ter Stegen, who missed much of last season due to injury.
- Once the clause is paid and cleared by LaLiga, the transfer should complete swiftly, signaling Barcelona’s squad reshaping and possible parting with Ter Stegen.
