Eric Garcia could still leave Manchester City before the transfer deadline after Barcelona came to an agreement, according to reports.
Garcia does not intend to sign a new contract at City, with his current deal expiring at the end of the season.
Barcelona are keen to re-sign the 19-year-old, who came through their academy before leaving for England three years ago.
However, they have been struggling to agree a fee with City, especially given that they could sign him for nothing next summer.
That led to the defender openly admitting he was focused on his final season in Manchester before the campaign got underway.
But there may have been another twist in his transfer saga. According to El Chiringuito, City have now reached an agreement with Barcelona.
