Barcelona had initially intended to prioritize the signing of a new right-back during the upcoming summer transfer window. However, that plan has been reconsidered following the standout performances of Eric García, who has impressed the coaching staff with his versatility and reliability.
García’s strong form has led the club to shift focus away from the right-back market, potentially saving resources and reinforcing confidence in internal solutions.
One of the players previously on Barcelona’s radar was **Andrei Rațiu**, the dynamic right-back from Rayo Vallecano. He had been closely monitored and was a serious candidate before García’s resurgence altered the club’s transfer outlook.
