Barcelona sporting director Deco this week sat down for a round of discussions with the representatives of Joan García.
That’s according to Diario Sport, who have on Friday provided an insight into the situation.
Goalkeeper Joan is for his part of course fresh off taking the biggest step of his career to date.
Following a dazzling campaign between the posts at Espanyol, the 24-year-old blocked out the outside noise, to put pen to paper on terms with Catalan rivals Barcelona.
Joan is expected to slot straight in as the Blaugrana’s new no.1 for next season, usurping both Wojciech Szczęsny, and Marc-André ter Stegen.
And yet, as of this moment, the Spaniard has not actually been registered to take to the pitch in La Liga.
The aforementioned Deco, in turn, over recent days held a meeting with Joan’s entourage in Catalunya’s capital.
As per a report from Sport:
‘Deco held an extensive meeting with Juanma López and Ramón Valencia, Joan García’s agent and lawyer. The meeting did not have a sporting or transfer market purpose but was held to solve pending documentation issues as well as to work on the registration of the Barça goalkeeper.’
