He has registered multiple clean sheets in a relatively short run of league appearances.<\/p><p>He has also repeatedly produced decisive saves in high-pressure moments. His display against Villarreal, where he frustrated attackers throughout the match, reinforced the sense that Barcelona may have secured one of the league&rsquo;s most reliable goalkeepers of the current campaign.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Is it time to call Joan Garc&iacute;a?<br><br>Luis de la Fuente: \"We already have 5 or 6 of the best goalkeepers in the world.

National team coach Luis de la Fuente has consistently underlined that competition. He has stressed that selection is not simply about short-term performance.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Speaking to AS, he said, <strong><em>&ldquo;We have five or six of the best goalkeepers in the world, but nobody talks about Robert Sanchez or Leo Roman. And Joan Garcia, obviously. We have fantastic goalkeepers in Spain.&rdquo;<\/em><\/strong> De la Fuente has so far placed his trust in Unai Simon, David Raya and Alex Remiro.<\/p><p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/antoine-semenyo-transfer-update-manchester-city-close-in-as-january-clause-nears\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Antoine Semenyo Transfer Update: Manchester City Close In as January Clause Nears<\/a><\/strong><\/p><p>All of them have been part of a settled international group. Addressing the situation further, he added, <strong><em>&ldquo;It&rsquo;s true that right now we&rsquo;re focusing on these three and we&rsquo;re delighted with Unai, David, and Alex, but we&rsquo;ll see what happens between now and March, or what will happen between now and June, God knows.&rdquo;<\/em><\/strong><\/p><p>That timeline matters. Garcia was not fully fit during the November international window. It removed an opportunity to press his case directly. With the coach valuing cohesion and familiarity, breaking into an established trio remains a significant challenge. Even for a goalkeeper outperforming peers domestically.<\/p><p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/neymar-injury-update-could-brazilian-still-play-in-world-cup-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Neymar Injury Update: Could the Brazilian Still Play in the World Cup 2026?<\/a><\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Time Still on the Side of Joan Garcia<\/h2><p>What works in Garcia&rsquo;s favour is the calendar.

He&rsquo;s will surely be involved in upcoming showcase matches for Barcelona and potentially be included in high-profile international fixtures in March.&nbsp;<\/p><p>It could provide him a platform to establish his case and demonstrate his readiness for the World Cup 2026. De la Fuente has been clear that no final decision has been made. He noted, &ldquo;Let&rsquo;s stay calm. At that point, we&rsquo;ll have to make the necessary decision. Some people will like it more than others. Whatever decision I make, I&rsquo;ll be convinced it&rsquo;s the best one.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The rapid rise of Joan Garcia since joining Barcelona has placed him firmly in the national team conversation.
