The head coach of the "Barcelona" club, Hansi Flick, after a 4:0 victory against Bilbao's "Athletic," highlighted Robert Lewandowski as the best striker of the decade and commented on Eric Garcia's future in the team and his return to the "Camp Nou" stadium:

"In my view, Robert Lewandowski is the best striker of the last decade."

"We are working on extending E. Garcia's contract.

We can all see how much this Spaniard has improved and how confident he is. The defender is playing at a fantastic level.

Having Eric Garcia in the team is fantastic for the coach. He plays at a great level in several different positions."

"I have been in this stadium for many years when I was released from a third-division club and told myself: Okay, one day I want to sit here on the bench, and this dream has come true. It is an incredible story of mine.

It shows that when you work hard, believe in what you do, anything is possible. This is what I told the players before this match against "Athletic."

We have fantastic fans, a fantastic club, and now we are home again, so it is an incredible feeling."

The "Barcelona" team returned to the renovated "Camp Nou" stadium after a 2.5-year hiatus.

24-year-old Eric Garcia has been with the "Barcelona" club since 2021 and has scored 7 goals in over 130 matches.

A couple of seasons ago, the Spaniard was loaned to the "Girona" team.
