Barça focuses on the renewal of Eric García: his contract expires in 2026

**Eric García, next objective on Deco's agenda**. With **De Jong already secured**, the sports management opens a new front: the continuity of **Eric García**. The center-back from Martorell's contract ends in 2026, and there is optimism in the Camp Nou offices to reach an agreement. **[Deco](https://www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com/tags/deco)** has confirmed that disproportionate offers will not be made, but a proposal will be presented that is in line with the market and the player's role. In a recent interview, the sporting director made it clear: "I think we are at a good limit and within the big clubs in Europe. From there, we will make an offer and the player will decide together with his agents." ## Eric García: A player of the Present and Future**Eric García** has established himself as a reliable alternative in the Barça defense. His ability to play the ball out from the back and his versatility to adapt to both a four-man defense and a scheme with three central defenders make him a valuable asset for Flick. In addition, his age—24 years old—puts him at an ideal point of maturity to become a benchmark center-back in the coming years.

Barça, after securing the renewal of Frenkie de Jong, seeks to prevent a talent trained in the youth academy and with international projection from becoming a free agent in the market. The negotiation is presented as one of the keys to the planning of the 2025/26 season.

## A strategy marked by sustainability

The Catalan club insists that all renewals will be framed within a financial sustainability strategy. Following the recent agreements with players such as Lamine Yamal and the consolidation of references such as Jules Koundé, the commitment to maintaining the competitive block is firm, but without compromising economic stability.

In this context, the Eric García and Frenkie de Jong operation reinforces the confidence of the members and fans in the sports management, and lays the foundations for new strategic renewals such as that of the player from Martorell.

The official announcement of Frenkie de Jong's renewal is expected in the coming days, a gesture that will undoubtedly be celebrated by the culé fans. From then on, attention will focus on Eric García and other planning moves that will mark the club's immediate future. * 👉 Follow all the news on the market and Barça renewals in our signings section.
