Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for the Españyol goalkeeper Joan Garcia.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Tottenham have concrete interest in signing the 23-year-old and they could face competition from Real Madrid and Arsenal. It will be interesting to see if the North London club decide to make a move for him in the coming weeks.
They will need to step up their efforts to sign the goalkeeper if they want to sign him for a reasonable price. The player has a €25 million release clause in his contract, but the figure is expected to go up after 15 August. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham can take advantage of the situation and get the deal done.
Although they have Guglielmo Vucario at their disposal, Garcia could prove to be a quality long-term acquisition. He could compete with the Italian international for a starting spot next season. More competition for places will help Tottenham improve as a team.
The London outfit will be hoping to do well across multiple competitions. They will be competing in the UEFA Europa League and they need a deeper squad to rotate the players more often. Signing another quality goalkeeper could prove to be a wise decision. The opportunity to move to Tottenham will be quite exciting for the player, and it remains to be seen whether they can get the deal done.
Meanwhile, Arsenal are keeping tabs on the player as well. They might need to replace Aaron Ramsdale this summer and Garcia would be a useful acquisition. The English goalkeeper is frustrated due to the lack of playing time at Arsenal and he could look to move on in search of first team action. Garcia would be the backup option to David Raya, if Arsenal managed to sign him..
