Joan Garcia News: Will start vs. Athletic Club

Garcia (knee) has been confirmed as the starting goalkeeper for Saturday's game against Athletic Club, per manager Hansi Flick during Friday's pre-match press conference.

"You're right, he's going to start," he said when asked about Garcia's chances of being the starter now that he's fully fit and ready to play. Garcia's return to the XI means Wojciech Szczesny will return to the bench.
