Manchester United might be getting ready for some big changes in the upcoming summer transfer window after the terrible season in the Premier League. There has to be a quality addition to the squad, and one of them is certainly finding a replacement for Andre Onana. The Cameroonian has made some terrible blunders this season, which have cost Manchester United a lot this season.
Cope has reported that the Red Devils are targeting the Espanyol goalkeeper Joan Garcia as a replacement for Onana. Ruben Amorim is quite sure that Onana can’t continue to be the number one goalkeeper of the side after the terrible performances of the player this season.
Manchester United want to sign Joan Garcia this summer
Espanyol will want £21 million for his sale, and Arsenal are also interested in the goalkeeper. Garcia has conceded 39 goals and kept seven clean sheets in 32 matches in the La Liga 2024/2025 season. That means when he is in goal, his team concedes a goal every 74 minutes. Joan Garcia’s per 90 minutes goals conceded stat is 1.22. In terms of raw goalkeeping, Garcia has saved 121 of the 162 shots faced, meaning Garcia’s save percentage is 74.69%.
Espanyol’s talented goalkeeper has shown exceptional qualities that make him a promising prospect for Manchester United. His sharp reflexes and composure under pressure allow him to make crucial saves in high-stakes moments. García excels in one-on-one situations and has displayed confidence and quick decision-making.
Will he be a good signing?
His ball-playing ability suits modern systems, and he possesses smooth distribution to start attacks. At 23, his maturity and leadership are a plus point, and he commands his area effectively. For United, seeking a reliable goalkeeper amid doubts over Andre Onana, García’s skill set is perfect with Ruben Amorim’s vision. His potential to grow into a top-tier keeper makes him a smart, long-term signing. Now, we have to wait and see if the deal is possible or not in the summer. However, given the performance of Onana, the Red Devils can’t go into another season with him as the first-choice goalkeeper in the squad. United do need changes in that position.
