The numbers behind Eric Garcia's Barça return from Manchester City
The centre-back's back in Catalonia after four years in England
The revolution is underway at Barcelona. New blood, youth and talent to create a team capable of winning everything. Eric Garcia returns to the club after five years in England with the same excitement he had when he was a player in La Masia. He displayed his delight on Monday: "Culers, I am really happy to come back home."
Garcia will sign his contract officially with Barça early on Tuesday afternoon. The deal links him to the club for five years, until the end of the 2025-26 season. He arrives for free after his contract expired with the English side.

From a promising youngster to a real talent. With experience in the Premier League and in the rhythm of playing for one of Europe's best clubs, City, he's now expected to take the next step in his development as he continues to grow back at Barça.
Barça don't want any surprises, therefore, and, as they have done with Pedri, have included a €400 million release clause to tie him down.
