Recently, at the 33rd Espanyol fans' party, Espanyol CEO Ye Mao reiterated that if Joan Garcia wants to transfer to Barcelona, ​​the only way is to pay the other party a termination fee of 25 million euros (plus inflation rate).

Ye Mao told the media: "There have been a lot of rumors in the past week, but it is just rumors. Currently, Joan Garcia is still a player of Espanyol. We must respect each professional player to choose his own path, but from the club's perspective, we must maintain the signed contract. We know that if this decision is to be made, a termination fee must be paid to terminate the contract. Apart from that, we have no content to negotiate."

"No formal contact from any club or player, we have been very clear about this from the first day, and all clubs understand that we do not need to teach anyone."

"Joan Garcia is now a termination fee player, His termination has been adjusted based on inflation. He has the right to choose his career, we have to understand everyone's personal decisions, but the contract is the contract, and we have to respect what has been signed. We have no intention of negotiating termination with Barcelona or anyone else. "

"We have not contacted the players since the last game. The players are on vacation, and we try to respect their rest time. We are working to complete other deals, but we have no contact with Joan."

"We are trying to keep the foundation established in the season, we know there are a lot of loan players and a lot of changes, but we want to keep the key positions stable and keep moving forward on that basis."
