Barcelona’s first football team lost to Leganés last night in La Liga, setting the stage for the first departures in the upcoming winter transfer window.
Barcelona suffered a 1-0 defeat at their “Montjuïc” stadium, in the 17th round of the Spanish league.
According to information from the Spanish newspaper “El Nacional”, Barcelona’s 1-0 loss to Leganés not only served as a wake-up call for the club, but also cast a shadow over a number of players, who were subjected to harsh criticism.

Among these players, Eric Garcia was the most criticized by German coach Hansi Flick, who had given the player a great opportunity to regain the confidence of the fans in a match that was theoretically supposed to be easy for the Catalan team.
The newspaper added that defender Eric Garcia played his first match as a starter under coach Hansi Flick against Leganés, but all indications suggest that it could be his last appearance with the Catalan team due to his poor performance.
The newspaper confirmed that Barcelona’s management is close to making a decision regarding Garcia’s potential transfer to Girona during the upcoming winter transfer window, in a move that reflects the club’s efforts to reorganize following their surprising 1-0 loss to Leganés. The defeat was a pivotal moment in Eric Garcia’s career at Barcelona, as he went from being one of the players expected to succeed to one of the most clearly excluded elements. With Flick’s patience running out and competition for his position increasing, it seems that Garcia’s days at Barcelona under the German coach are numbered.
