Overview
- Catalunya Radio’s Nil Sola reports Girona are weighing a January loan for Marc Bernal, with local coverage describing a bid to replicate the club’s successful Eric Garcia loan.
- The move remains unconfirmed, and reporting says any decision could hinge on the minutes Bernal receives before year-end.
- Since a 382-day ACL layoff ended in September, Bernal has logged about 120 minutes across limited appearances, having marked his return with an assist against Valencia.
- Barcelona have tied Bernal to a contract through 2029 with a €500 million release clause, making a temporary switch more realistic than a permanent transfer.
- Girona’s interest is driven by a poor league start with two wins in 15 matches and an 18th-place standing, while Spain U-21 omitted Bernal last month due to his lack of club minutes.
