Eric Garcia closing in on full fitness

Ferran Torres, Ronald Araujo... and also Eric Garcia. The trio have been hard at it for weeks as they battle to get back to full fitness and get back to playing under Hansi Flick. Eric had started the season in fine form playing just in front of the defence, but last October 20 got hurt in the build-up to the Sevilla game, and has been struggling with his right adductor muscle since.

After a year on loan to Girona, he had firmly re-established his place in the first team, and hence it came as huge blow to have to miss so many key games of the campaign. Our cameras have been following what he has been getting up to in the Ciutat Esportiva.
