Barcelona neglected to prevent Eric Garcia from playing against them, Xavi reveals

The upcoming La Liga clash between Barcelona and Girona presents an intriguing reunion for some familiar faces. As Barcelona prepares to host their Catalan neighbors, the spotlight is on Girona’s surprising position in the league table and the presence of familiar names on the opposing team. With players like Pablo Torre and Eric Garcia, on loan from Barcelona, set to feature in the match, the build-up to the game has been filled with questions and controversy. Let’s delve into the story behind this highly-anticipated showdown.

Barcelona gears up to face off against Girona in a crucial La Liga clash this weekend. The Catalan giants will have to contend with their own player, Pablo Torre, who is on loan at Girona and ineligible to play against his parent club. In a similar situation, Barcelona loanee Joao Felix scored the winning goal against Atletico Madrid last week, despite being on loan from the opposing team. Barcelona’s late attempt to amend Eric Garcia’s loan to Girona left the defender eligible to play against his parent club, a decision that Xavi labeled as “illogical.” With Girona currently holding a four-point lead over Barcelona in second place, this matchup promises to be an exciting showdown between familiar faces.
