The past few years of García’s career have taken him to Turkey with Orduspor, the MLS in the United States with Houston Dynamo,the Danish side Esbjerg fB and more recently the Cyprus side Nea Salamis Famagusta FC – from where he joins ATK.
Over the course of his career, García has featured in 180 games in the Segunda División (second tier) and has made 33 appearances in the Segunda División B.
He joins new signings Carl McHugh from Motherwell FC and Indian international Anas Edathodika in defence at the Kolkata club.
