Europa Press Neither Gavi nor Dani Olmo, Luis Enrique asks for another Barça signing: he's leaving Camp Nou for free
Luis Enrique changes his plans and is looking for a Barça player who could arrive in Paris for free if he doesn't renew his contract
For some time now, Luis Enrique has been closely following everything that happens at Barça. He played and coached at the Catalan club for years, leaving an indelible mark both in the locker room and among the fans. That's why it's no surprise that he still keeps a special connection with everything related to the Catalan entity.
A few weeks ago, several reports claimed that Luis Enrique doesn't rule out returning to coach Barça at some point in his career. However, right now the Asturian coach is experiencing a golden moment in Paris, where he enjoys absolute power at PSG. He has become the architect of the recent Champions League winner, with a project completely shaped to his style.
Luis Enrique, the master and lord of PSG
The Spanish coach has managed to impose his philosophy in Paris with an authority rarely seen at the French club. Luis Enrique enjoys complete freedom to decide on signings, departures, and sports planning, something he never fully had in Barcelona. The results prove him right and his figure has been consolidated as the cornerstone of PSG.
In this regard, Luis Enrique isn't satisfied and is already thinking about how to strengthen his squad for the coming seasons. He has focused his attention on FC Barcelona. Last summer, PSG tried to sign Lamine Yamal with an offer exceeding €200 million. In addition, footballers like Pedri, Koundé, Gavi, or Dani Olmo have also been the object of Parisian interest in recent transfer windows.
A new target from Camp Nou
In recent hours, PSG's coach seems to have shifted his gaze to another Barça player. Luis Enrique wants to sign Eric García, whose contract ends in the summer of 2026. His current performance and projection have placed him among the most outstanding players in Hansi Flick's squad.
The contractual situation of Eric García hasn't gone unnoticed by Luis Enrique. While Barça has renewed players like Araújo, Pedri, Gavi, or Koundé, Eric still hasn't received a formal offer to extend his contract. If nothing changes, starting in January 2026 he will be able to freely negotiate his future with any interested club.
This possible transfer will have to be closely watched. Eric García has established himself as a starter at Barça, so it seems only a matter of time before the moment for his renewal arrives. However, PSG's interest and Luis Enrique's promises could change everything.
