Joan Garcia has established himself as one of the standout goalkeepers in his first season with Barcelona, having kept a clean sheet in 10 out of the 22 matches he played for the Catalan team since his transfer from Espanyol. This currently makes him the goalkeeper with the best record in the major European leagues, according to statistics from the Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo."

He achieved this in eight clean matches in La Liga, one in the Spanish Super Cup, and another in the Copa del Rey, achieving a rate of 53.33% of matches without conceding goals. This surpasses notable players like Lucas Chevalier, the Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper, and Kobel, the Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper, despite his absence for a period due to injury, reflecting his significant impact on defense.

The biggest challenge for Garcia remains in the UEFA Champions League, where Barcelona still needs to improve its continental defensive performance, which will also determine its ability to excel outside domestic competitions.

Statistically, Garcia contributed to enhancing the team's stability, as the goal concession rate dropped to 0.73 goals with him compared to 1.83 goals without him, while the save rate increased to 80% compared to 56% before his arrival, highlighting his vital role in reassuring his teammates and supporting the defense.

Historically, Garcia matches Victor Valdes and Ter Stegen in the number of games where he kept a clean sheet during his first 22 official matches with Barcelona. Meanwhile, the records of Andoni Zubizarreta and Bravo remain a future target for the new generation of the club's goalkeepers.
