Barcelona to activate Joan García's release clause

Image
  FC Barcelona’s pursuit of Espanyol goalkeeper Joan García reached a new phase this weekend after Espanyol’s CEO Mao Ye Wu laid down an unambiguous condition: Barça must pay García’s full release clause to secure the transfer. On June 8, at a fan-club gathering, Mao Ye made clear that despite recent reports of an agreement in principle, Espanyol will not negotiate on price. As he put it, “the contract is the contract… we have no intention of negotiating the clause.
