Manchester City are keen on signing the Spanish goalkeeper Joan Garcia.
According to Fichajes, Manchester City want to sign the 23-year-old goalkeeper at the end of the season. His performances for Espanyol have left the Premier League giants impressed, and it will be interesting to see if they come forward with an official offer to sign the player.
Garcia will certainly be attracted to the idea of playing in the Premier League and the opportunity to join Manchester City will be quite exciting for him. They are one of the biggest clubs in the world and they could provide him with the platform to fight for trophies regularly.
The Espanyol goalkeeper is likely to replace Ederson in the starting lineup. The Brazilian goalkeeper has been linked with a move away from the Premier League club. Clubs in Saudi Arabia are reportedly keen on securing his signature. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Garcia would be a solid addition
Garcia would be a long-term acquisition for Manchester City and he could develop into a key player for the club in the near future. If the Premier League champions can sign him for the right price, the deal could look like a bargain in the long term.
Ederson has been a reliable servant for Manchester City over the years and replacing him will not be easy. However, the 23-year-old Spaniard is a talented player with a bright future, and he could certainly fill the void left by the South American.
Manchester City have had a disappointing season this year and they are likely to miss out on the league title. They will need to rebuild the squad in the next few months and they have already brought in a couple of quality additions during the January transfer window. It will be interesting to see if they can plug the remaining gaps in their squad during the summer transfer window and bounce back strongly.
They have a tremendous squad and a world-class manager at their disposal. Garcia will certainly fancy his chances of fighting for major trophies with them.
