Barça: which goalkeeper will face Athletic Bilbao?

On the eve of the clash against Athletic Bilbao, Hansi Flick has settled the question on everyone's lips: who will be between the posts for FC Barcelona?

The answer is clear: Joan García will be the starter. The young Spanish goalkeeper, now fully recovered from his meniscus injury, returns to his spot after several weeks on the sidelines. Hansi Flick confirmed the decision in a press conference:

Impressive at the start of the season with 3 clean sheets in 7 matches, García quickly won over the coaching staff. Now back to full fitness, he naturally resumes his role as the number one. During García's absence, Wojciech Szczęsny filled in, playing 9 games. But after conceding 17 goals and failing to keep a single clean sheet, the Polish keeper now makes way for the young Spaniard.
