Left-back Fran Garcia's performance in the ongoing pre-season tour of the United States continues to lack conviction. According to Spanish media outlet relevo, while Real Madrid's top performers in pre-season include Joan Martinez, Günther and Endrick, Fran Garcia has struggled to impress on this US tour.
Although the Real Madrid locker room revealed that Garcia was in excellent physical shape after returning from his holiday, his performances in the two preseason games exposed his shortcomings in his ability to read the defense as well as his ability to control the ball. While Garcia has been excellent at laying off crosses, his defensive deficiencies have been hard to hide.
Real Madrid's goals for this summer remain clear: extend Mendy's contract and sign Bayern's Alphonso Davies. With Bayern not willing to compromise easily, Garcia has a chance to get more playing time in the new season. However, Real Madrid will not rule out the possibility of signing Davies before the summer window closes.
The club's top brass value Garcia's potential and the latter has expressed his desire to continue playing for Real Madrid. However, Premier League side Bournemouth have shown a keen interest in Garcia and are interested in bringing him in.
