Rumor has it that Liverpool are interested in signing Arsenal target Joan Garcia
The goalkeeper Joan Garcia of Espanyol has been linked to Arsenal, and Liverpool has joined the bidding for her services. Liverpool is making a last-ditch effort to sign the highly-regarded Spanish goalkeeper as the transfer season draws to a close, which might throw a wrench into Arsenal’s plans.
Despite the Reds’ interest in Garcia, they are now in the midst of discussions to sign Giorgi Mamardashvili, a goalkeeper from Valencia in La Liga. Currently, Mamardashvili’s transfer to Liverpool is nearing completion; however, the Georgian international may choose to remain on loan with Valencia instead of jumping straight into the Premier League. Because of this change, the Reds are looking into other possibilities, and Garcia has emerged as a serious contender.
Since June, Arsenal has reportedly been trying to sign 23-year-old goalkeeper Garcia, and rumors have it that the Gunners have reached a deal with Garcia personally. The Gunners’ plan all along was to sign Garcia as a backup goalkeeper for David Raya so that they could train him to be the starting netminder in the future. The young Spaniard has great promise as a future first-team goalkeeper because to his lightning reflexes and shot-stopping skills.
Girona has taken an interest in the race for Garcia’s signature, which adds another dimension of intrigue to the scenario. Reporter Sergio Escario of Mundo Deportivo’s Espanyol section speculates that Liverpool’s involvement could be a ploy to force Arsenal and other suitors to make a hasty choice.It’s possible that Liverpool’s late attempt for Garcia was a calculated effort to get a bright prospect and put pressure on Arsenal before the transfer window closed. The Reds already have an abundance of goalkeepers, with Alisson Becker as their clear leader, but they could benefit in the long run from acquiring a youthful, gifted keeper like Garcia.
Garcia’s future aspirations to become a premier goalkeeper are congruent with Liverpool’s strategy of constructing for the future. At 23, he still has plenty of time to hone his craft under the tutelage of industry legend Alisson before vying for the lead part. In addition, if any goalkeepers leave in the near future, Liverpool would have more depth and stability with his acquisition.
