Every Body: Juan Garcia confident of returning for Clasico, exactly 29 days after knee surgery

October 9th According to the "Daily Sports" report, Barcelona goalkeeper Joan Garcia hopes to return in time to participate in the El Clasico and is optimistic about it.

Barcelona has suffered two consecutive defeats recently, and one of the reasons for the decline in the team's performance is the increase in injuries. In addition to the injured players such as Yamal, Rafinha, Fermin, and Garvey in the midfield and frontcourt, the injury of main goalkeeper Juan Garcia also worries Barcelona. Juan Garcia tore the medial meniscus of his knee in Barcelona's previous game against Real Oviedo and underwent arthroscopic surgery.

Doctors previously expected Juan Garcia to miss 4 to 6 weeks due to this injury. The "Daily Sports" stated that Juan Garcia has set a goal for himself to return in the first Spanish El Clasico in La Liga this season. At 23:15 on the evening of October 26, Barcelona will challenge Real Madrid away from home. That game will be exactly 29 days after Juan Garcia's knee surgery.

Joan Garcia has already missed Barcelona's three games against Real Sociedad, Paris Saint-Germain, and Serbia due to injury. He will continue to miss Barcelona's next two games against Girona and Olympiacos. But Juan Garcia believes that as long as his knee injury maintains the current good recovery rate, he is expected to return and start in the national derby, and he is optimistic about this.

Barcelona signed Juan Garcia from Espanyol this summer and immediately gave him a starting position. Juan Garcia's performance has also met people's expectations. Except for a mistake in the game against Real Oviedo that led to an empty goal, Juan Garcia has played steadily in other Barcelona games this season.

Joan Garcia has played 7 times for Barcelona this season and conceded 5 goals. Another Barcelona goalkeeper Szczesny played 3 times and conceded 7 goals. Although the problem of Barcelona conceding more goals cannot be blamed on Szczesny, at least Joan Garcia has shown a stronger sense of security at the goal line. He has done a good job in saving, passing the ball at his feet, and handling the ball in the air. Therefore, "Daily Sports" believes that if Juan Garcia can catch up with the National Derby as expected, it will be good news for the Barcelona club.
