Joan Garcia has enjoyed a great season at Barcelona since moving to the club from local rivals Espanyol in the summer.

Garcia’s numbers are also impressive. He’s currently leading the way when it comes to clean sheets in La Liga. The Barcelona goalkeeper has 14 in 27 matches in the Spanish top flight, three ahead of nearest rival Thibaut Courtois.
️ Joan García es el guardameta de LaLiga que más veces ha dejado a cero su portería este curso. El del FC Barcelona ha permanecido imbatido en el 51,9% de los encuentros que ha disputado.
