Barcelona manager Hansi Flick tackles potential exit in January transfer window – 'No, I don't think so'
Barcelona look unlikely to do much business in the January transfer window, given their problems with their salary cap. However, there are teams interested in removing some of the fringe players from Hansi Flick.
Girona have made no secret of the fact that they wanted to bring Eric Garcia to the club after a successful loan last season, and tried to do so last summer. There has been talk of a new move from Barcelona's Catalan neighbors this winter, with Garcia missing opportunities at Barcelona.
Flick was asked if he was aware of any intention that Garcia would leave the club in the coming weeks, and the German manager explained that the 23-year-old remains a useful player in his eyes.
“No, I don't think so. For us, he is a good player. He had the problem that at the end of the last season, he had an injury. He is a smart player, he can play in different positions, and we don't think to this.”
President Laporta will appear in a press conference as soon as Dani Olmo and Pau Victor are registered. The club maintains that they will be. @victor_nahe

Garcia played 13 times this season for Barcelonabut has only started once in the last three months of action. More often Flick chose to use him in the center of the field rather than his preferred center position as well. With Ronald Araujo and Andreas Christensen on their way back from injury, many wondered if Garcia's opportunities would be further reduced.
