Joan García

In September 2026, reports cited a Transfermarkt market value of €45 million. The most significant recent transaction was his completed transfer from Espanyol to FC Barcelona in July 2025 for his release clause, reported as €25 million, with some sources noting a final figure of around €26.4 million including inflation adjustments. Prior to this move, in the first half of 2025, various figures were mentioned in transfer rumours: Arsenal was linked with offers of €20 million, while his release clause at Espanyol was consistently reported as €25 million, sometimes noted as rising to €30 million under certain conditions. Newcastle was also reportedly prepared to pay around €24-25 million. A rejected bid from Arsenal for €20 million from the summer of 2024 was also mentioned.

Our valuation is driven by Joan García's confirmed €25 million transfer to FC Barcelona in July 2025, his subsequent integration into the team, and earning caps for the Spanish national team. Current reports from September 2026 indicate sustained interest from top Premier League clubs and state that only an "astronomical fee" would persuade Barcelona to sell, justifying a significant increase on his last transfer fee and aligning with his reported market value of €45 million.
