Barcelona defender Oscar Mingueza has welcomed Eric Garcia's imminent return.
The Manchester City defender is expected to re-sign for Barca when his contract expires in June.
Mingueza told La Vanguardia: “Is Eric Garcia in his place? Yes, he's a player who grew up in La Masia and also grew up in (Pep) Guardiola's Manchester City, which is a team that has a very similar philosophy to Barça, to press and have very advanced lines.
"He is a spectacular central defender, who has made very good games with the national team and here we need the best. And for me, it's a privilege to be alongside the best."
