Recently, Spaniards goalkeeper Joan Garcia, in an interview, publicly responded for the first time to the transfer rumors surrounding him this summer, especially the scandal with Premier League giants Arsenal. In the face of external speculation, Joan Garcia appeared unusually calm and focused, admitting that he had been immersed in the Olympic Games throughout the summer, and tried to shield himself from the outside world.
"I was very calm throughout the summer window because I was competing in the Olympics and tried to isolate myself as much as possible from outside information." Joan Garcia recalled, "When I returned to the team after the games, the league had already started. It was true that I was a bit nervous in the last few days, but I was always focused on the pitch, which is my duty as a player. I'm glad I wasn't distracted by the transfer rumors and that the fans were happy that I chose to stay with the team."
Joan Garcia has expressed his gratitude for Arsenal's interest, but he cherishes his current opportunity to play for the Spaniards even more. "I've worked hard for many years to get this opportunity and now I'm very satisfied and happy to be able to continue in goal for Espanyol." His words reveal a deep affection for the team and a strong confidence in the future.
In addition, Joan Garcia spoke about his opinion on the best goalkeepers in the world. When asked if Courtois is the best goalkeeper in the world at the moment, he didn't hesitate to answer in the affirmative. "In my opinion yes, Courtois has always been at the highest level, even after a serious injury." Joan Garcia said, "He is indeed a tough goalkeeper, but soccer is a team sport and my teammates will work hard to find opportunities to break down his door. Of course, I also hope that I can make great saves in the game to help my team stop Real Madrid's offense."
