Joan García Breaks Silence: How He Experienced His Signing for FC Barcelona

Joan García, goalkeeper of FC Barcelona, did not hesitate to speak at length in an interview granted to Mundo Deportivo. In it, the 24-year-old goalkeeper broke down several topics about the beginning of his stage as a player of the azulgrana team.

The player from Sallent de Llobregat explained that, despite the fact that his registration in the first azulgrana squad seemed like a complex matter, he always trusted that the process would come to fruition: "I have not suffered. When I signed I already knew what there was. I was and am willing to face it and calm. They transmit calm to me, that everything will be fine, and I trust them," he added.

In the same vein, the former RCD Espanyol player began to praise his new home, expressing fascination with what he had experienced in his first days as a Barça player:

"It is a great entity, with characteristics of the great ones. I feel very comfortable and happy"

Regarding the decision to make the leap from the perico team —historical rival of the azulgranas—, Joan García made it clear that he had no doubts: "Deportively and thinking about my future, I had no doubts. Obviously, coming from Espanyol raises certain questions, but, in football terms, I never doubted," he emphasized.

The proposal of the azulgrana club, above all

In turn, the goalkeeper asserted that, although he had proposals from abroad, none came close to what the culé team offered him:

"Many names come out, but it is not always like that. There was interest, yes, but none like what Barça offered me: a young squad, with quality and options to win everything. I had no doubts"

Likewise, Joan García also revealed another determining factor for his landing in Barcelona: "For the project, for the quality of the squad. They made me feel loved and made an important economic commitment that many would not have made. Feeling loved is very important to me," he said.
