Óscar Mingueza has arrived like a salvavidas for Ronald Koeman in the first team of the FC Barcelona after the injury of Gerard Hammered and the failure in the signing​ of Eric García. After the sanction of Clément Lenglet pro accumulation of yellow cardboards, the canterano went back to the titularity in the new The Cármenes against the Granada and cuajó another big performance.

After finish the party, Óscar Mingueza attended to the media to value the victory obtained against the Granada, that is the third consecutive in this 2021 and the fourth followed out of house. "I am very happy with the victory. We have achieved three consecutive victories out of house. It was important to begin the year of this way and am very happy by all the team", said.

Óscar Mingueza ensured that the work of the team is the same that the one of weeks backwards, although in the last parties the luck of the team of face to goal has shot and now the occasions go in. "We are working the same, the trainings are the same. The effectiveness has been better. Some day had to go in the occasions. This is the way to be followed", commented.

Óscar Mingueza also valued very positively the performance of Samuel Umtiti: "it Has done a very good party and deserved it to him after so much time. I gladden me a lot by him". It is necessary to remember that the frank defence-Cameroonian went to be acting against the Granada but that the injury of Ronald Araújo in the warming provided him the opportunity to be headline. His performance was very correct.

Óscar Mingueza , like alternative to Eric García

From the past summer, Ronald Koeman asked the signing of a central for apuntalar the defence but the enrocada posture of the Manchester City with Eric García did that the weakened economy of the FC Barcelona could not cover the operation. The injury of long length of Gerard Hammered increased the urgencies, but the return of the young defence 'cityzen' will be impossible until summer.

Fortunately, the apparition of Óscar Mingueza can be key so that the FC Barcelona do not have to go to by a 'covered' for Eric García. The canterano will litigate by the titularity with Clément Lenglet and Ronald Araújo, even with Samuel Umtiti. This yes, in summer, the culés will go definitively to by the defence of the Manchester City, that would arrive like free agent after finalising his agreement.
