Marca: After the transfer window is closed, Barcelona is pushing forward the contract renewal between De Jong and Eric Garcia
According to "Marca", after the transfer window is closed, Barcelona will make every effort to promote the renewal of De Jong and Eric Garcia.
In fact, the club has been in negotiations for renewal with the two players since a few months ago, and it is currently going well and all parties are optimistic about the results.
Garcia, 24, and De Jong, 28, are both main players in the Frick system. Under the leadership of the German coach, the two performed more and more outstandingly. Since their contracts will expire at the end of June 2026, these two renewals appear particularly urgent. Barcelona doesn't want to lose them, and they don't want them to leave the team as free.
Previously, Garcia and De Jong had some doubts about their future, but as their position in the team improved and their influence in the locker room increased, they are now more willing to stay in Barcelona.
Garcia returned to Barcelona in the summer of 2021 and has now become an indispensable member of the team. He started in the first three games of La Liga, playing the role of right back and center back respectively. His versatile characteristics have been highly praised by the head coach.
De Jong started in the first two games of the season, but missed the game against Levante due to family reasons. He is the absolute main player in Barcelona's double midfielder position and is one of the team's captains. He joined Barcelona in 2019 and has become an important pillar of the team.
