Luis de la Fuente prepares national team call-up for Joan Garcia after Barcelona move

Barcelona has completed the transfer of Joan Garcia from city rivals Espanyol — activating the release clause worth 25 million euros to secure the signature of the 24-year-old goalkeeper.

The Spanish goalkeeper has signed a five-year contract with Barcelona — binding him to the Catalan club until June 2030.

Luis de la Fuente, Spain’s national team coach, has expressed his readiness to call up Garcia to the senior squad — following his move to Barcelona announced this Friday.

Garcia has arrived at the club facilities and was introduced as Barcelona’s first signing of this summer transfer window — marking the beginning of a new chapter in his career with the Spanish giants.
