Arsenal could sign a defender from Barcelona to replace Timber.

Following Jurrien Timber‘s injury in his debut encounter for the club, Arsenal is allegedly eyeing a summer signing for Barcelona defender Eric Garcia.

Unfortunately, Timber’s injury is projected to keep him out until the end of the season, which will be a big setback for Arsenal. As a result, the club is considering acquiring a successor.

According to The Sun, Garcia has surfaced as a possible target for Arsenal. According to reports, Arsenal is considering making an offer for the former Manchester City player.

Arsenal could sign a defender from Barcelona to replace Timber.

Mikel Arteta, who worked with Garcia at Manchester City, is well aware with the player’s ability. Garcia, according to the Arsenal boss, would be a useful addition to the squad at the Emirates.

While Barcelona may be willing to sell Eric Garcia, any potential deal would almost certainly require a large transfer fee to entice the Catalan club. Arsenal’s pursuit of a signing during their summer buying spree poses difficulties, given they have already made significant investments during the current transfer window.

Just Arsenal Opinion

Garcia has Premier League experience and won the league with Barcelona last season, so he is a strong candidate to join our squad this summer.

However, we have multiple choices in our defence right now, and spending a large chunk of money on a new center-back does not appear to be something we should do until we sell some of our present possibilities.
