New Barcelona signing Joan García has bonded with one player above all others in Hansi Flick’s squad over the early months of the new season.
That’s according to Esport3, who point towards Eric García as the player in question.
Goalkeeper Joan has for his part taken his place centre stage in the chatter surrounding Barcelona over recent days.
This comes after the 24-year-old showcased precisely why the Camp Nou brass sanctioned a move for his signature this summer.
En route to Barca being held to a 1-1 draw by Rayo Vallecano, Joan was the undisputed standout performer, conjuring up a whole host of top-class saves.
Such endeavours have since given rise to widespread praise across the Blaugrana fanbase.
The Spaniard, it is understood, has settled excellently into the dressing room in Catalunya’s capital, a key factor in his stellar form.
And as alluded to above, on Thursday, an insight into some of those to have played a leading role in this settling in period has been provided.
As per a report from Esport3:
‘Along with Dani Olmo, Joan has also done a lot with Pedri, Ferran and Fermín. But above all, the player
with whom he has connected the most is Èric Garcia, with whom he coincided in the lower categories of the Spanish national team. They share a similar sense of humour.’
