Barcelona signing Garcia: Aguero wouldn't be bad for Spain!

Barcelona signing Eric Garcia has hailed the team spirit inside the Spain camp.

Spain kicked off the Euros with a 0-0 draw against Sweden as Alvaro Morata struggled in front of goal.

Garcia told Sport: “Our ambition is the maximum, (but) we have to go step by step, game by game. The team's hope is very big. The team is spectacular with enormous quality in training. I've not seen so much effort and that says a lot about the team and its ambition. But first we play Poland and then what will come will come.

“The whole team is capable of scoring goals. Alvaro had the bad luck of the chance, but we all know that he's a great player, he has our confidence, our support and he'll score a lot of goals."

Asked if fellow new Barca signing Sergio Aguero could make a difference for Spain, Garcia laughed.

“That wouldn't be bad! I don't need to talk too much about him, he's got tired of scoring goals in England. I hope he can do it with us too (at Barca)."
