Tottenham Hotspur are looking to improve their defensive unit with the signing of Eric Garcia from Barcelona.
According to a report from Fichajes, they are willing to intensify their efforts to sign the 24-year-old defender in the coming weeks, and they are prepared to submit an offer of around €15 million.
It will be interesting to see if Barcelona are willing to accept the offer and sanction the departure of the Spanish international. Garcia is versatile enough to operate as a central defender as well as a defensive midfielder. His versatility will be a bonus for Tottenham if they can get the deal done.
It is no secret that Tottenham need more quality in the squad, and Garcia could prove to be a useful acquisition. Apart from his qualities as a player, his winning experience could prove to be vital as well. Before his move to La Liga, he won the Premier League title with Manchester City during the 2020/21 season.
It remains to be seen whether Tottenham can bring him back to the Premier League in the summer.
Eric Garcia could be a useful addition
If they manage to sign in for €15 million, the deal could look like a major bargain in the coming seasons. Garcia is still quite young, and he could improve further with coaching experience. He could develop into an important first-team player for Tottenham.
It will be interesting to see if Tottenham follow up on their interest with an initial offer to sign the player. Barcelona are going through financial difficulties, and they could be willing to sell some of their squad players in the summer. Garcia is not a key player for them, and it seems that he could be on the chopping block.
Garcia announces the Premier League well, and he could be tempted to return to England if Tottenham can offer him regular opportunities.
