Pep Guardiola has spoken about the possibility of Eric García going to Barcelona in this winter market. Despite the fact that the Spanish international ends his contract next summer, the Blaugrana club is trying to get him to join their new team immediately. Guardiola, for his part, tries to make him stay at Manchester City: “I hope he doesn't go away, although perhaps in Barcelona they know more than I do. I don't know what will happen, honestly, but maybe it does. I can't say more.”

In addition, the Catalan coach analyzed the situation in England with regard to the coronavirus and the latest recommendations to footballers, such as, for example, that they cannot hug each other at goal celebrations: “The situation in the United Kingdom is not the fault of the players. footballers, let's not put the responsibility on them. From day one we have followed the government's recommendations. We know the difficult situation here and we will do everything to follow the rules. When someone breaks them, it is not good. I hope we score many goals although we will be careful not to hug each other. “
