Eric García could renew with Barça: Flick supports him and his loyalty to the club facilitate the operation. Find out how the negotiations are progressing
One of the great objectives of the sports management of FC Barcelona is, beyond strengthening the squad with new incorporations, to secure the key pieces that are already part of the team. It is no coincidence that there has been a wave of renewals of structural players, with Jules Koundé being the last to extend his contract until 2030.
Prior to him, other important names of the culé team that renewed were:
- Wojciech Szczęsny (2027)
- Lamine Yamal (2031)
- Raphinha (2028)
- Pau Cubarsí (2029)
- Gavi (2030)
- Pedri González (2030)
- Ronald Araujo (2031)
- Gerard Martín (2028)
- Fermín López (2029)
- Marc Casadó (2028)
A true masterclass from the sports management led by Deco, who now has another player in his sights whose renewal could be finalized soon: Eric García. According to the newspaper SPORT, it is not ruled out that this contractual extension will be closed before the end of the market, on September 1.

Eric García's renewal on Barcelona's radar
The cited source suggests that the Eric García-Barça agreement could be extended until 2030. A more than deserved renewal for the player from Martorell, who has consolidated himself as a fundamental piece for Hansi Flick. The German coach has found in him a solution to one of the main problems in his cycle as culé coach: the absence of a right-back to complement Jules Koundé.
In turn, Eric García has proven to be a versatile player: in addition to playing as a right-back, he can also act as a center-back or midfielder. Flick already tested him in this position during the 2025/26 preseason in Asia. Likewise, in official competition, he has just started against RCD Mallorca (0-3), leaving good feelings in the 90 minutes he played.
The importance of renewing Eric García in the blaugrana project
Seeing the performance of the '24', it is not surprising that the club may offer him a renewal soon. His main supporter is Hansi Flick, who stopped his departure in the past and fully trusts him. Likewise, Eric shares the passion for Barcelonismo, which will surely facilitate the negotiation.
Beyond collaborating with the fair play strategy, the renewal would be a sign of confidence towards a player who has earned a place in the structure of the first team. With this decision, Barcelona ensures continuity in a fundamental piece for its sports project.
