Pedri de Las Palmas’s signing, the window of past plays, gave a ray of hope that Barcelona, however, can be informed of its mistakes. Having spent too much on Ousmane Dembélé, Antoine Griezmann and Philippe Coutinho, the slow blaugrana decline was all too simple to watch.
His rivals, Real Madrid, continued to spend a lot on the players, but his tactic of buying established stars such as Ronaldo, Kaká, James Rodriguez and Gareth Bale has changed. The arrival of Eden Hazard has been an anomaly in proactive decisions to buy young talent.
Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo, Marco Asensio, Dani Ceballos, Theo Hernandez, Alvaro Odriozola, Brahim Diaz, Luka Jovic, Eder Militao and Ferland Mendy, to name a few. Some have been hits, and the jury is still absent, however, Real shortened the gap and beat Barcelona while winning a Champions League trophy beyond the loss of Cristiano Ronaldo.
Meanwhile, Barcelona has been in crisis. Messi controversies, presidential uptime and move-in agreements have noticed that Arthur, a favorite of 23-year-old fans, is going to Juventus and Miralem Pjanic, 30, comes at a higher cost.
Recently, former manager Javier Bordas even talked about how the club rejected the signing of Erling Haaland, Dani Olmo, Alvaro Morata and Ferran Torres.
Things want to replace and the signing of Pedri, as well as Trincao and the departure of Ansu Fati from the academy can only be symptoms of what they are.
Pedri presented opportunities through new senior coach Ronald Koeman. The 17-year-old will consider Ansu Fati’s good fortune as a role model. He has scored twice in 10 senior appearances so far, things may have been very different for Spanish.
Having left Las Palmas last summer, Pedri had already been rejected through his blue-grana rival, Real Madrid.
“I was on trial for a week in Madrid, I was told I wasn’t smart enough,” Pedri told Cadena Ser. “They took me to a workplace and told me, and it bothered me a little bit, but it allowed me to stay. run and improve. “
“Thanks to them, I am now part of the team I was looking to be on. Since I was a child, I’ve been a Barca fan. “
Pedri also talked about what it’s like to play Lionel Messi since she was a kid: “You never get used to seeing Messi’s moves. “
“Not only Messi, all the teammates ask you. Being informed of them is a luxury. See what Messi is doing . . . he does what he needs and when he needs it. You see him on television and on PlayStation”, and then watch him in genuine life it makes an impression. »
“Playing with Messi is a prize he’s given me. “
Barcelona return to action with a massive clash against Atletico Madrid at 8 p. m. on Saturday, November 21.
