Pau Cubarsí asks Deco for answers, his best partner is linked to PSG, there's a reason

Barça has found in Pau Cubarsí their center-back for the next 10 or 15 years. The latest great gem produced at La Masia has established himself in the culé defense with a maturity beyond his years, showing an impressive ability to read the game. His performance has been outstanding both in LaLiga and in the Champions League, and today he is considered one of the most promising defensive prospects in the world.

It is clear that Pau Cubarsí is completely undisputed at FC Barcelona: he plays almost everything and, usually, he does so at a high level. However, the issue of his partner in the center of defense continues to cause a headache for the culé board. Last season Iñigo Martínez was the ideal complement for Cubarsí, but after his departure a difficult gap to fill has opened up.

At this moment, the starter alongside Pau Cubarsí is Eric García. The former City player has moved ahead of Araújo and Christensen in the rotation, showing he can be a starter at Barça. In this regard, due to his great performance, PSG has shown interest in signing him.

Psg want Eric García: Deco is the responsible

Eric García has earned Hansi Flick's full trust due to his versatility and strong performances. As a center-back, he brings solidity, physical power, and impeccable ball distribution, which has earned him a starting spot next to Pau Cubarsí. Now, despite all this, Deco still hasn't renewed his contract and PSG knows it.

Eric García's contract with Barça expires next June 30, 2026, but so far there haven't been any talks with Deco to speed up his signing. In this scenario, PSG, who is looking for a center-back with good ball distribution and international experience, will try to close his signing as soon as possible. Luis Enrique is the main supporter of this move, so Deco will have to move quickly if he doesn't want to lose Eric completely free of charge.

Pau Cubarsí asks for Eric García's renewal

Pau Cubarsí doesn't understand anything. He knows that, right now, Eric García is his most reliable partner and he can't understand how, with the threat from PSG, Deco isn't taking action. Barça's number "5" wants number "24" to stay and he'll do everything in his power to make it happen.

Without a doubt, letting Eric García leave for free to PSG would be a very controversial decision. Deco knows it and we'll surely have news in the coming weeks. Let's remember that, due to Eric's contract situation, the French club could start negotiating with him starting in January.
