BarcelonaIt is inexhaustible. In the match against Athletic Bilbao, Pedri once again showed his commitment as a Barça player by ordering and handing out games, as if he had already taken the holidays that are just beginning this Sunday.
Last season the young midfielder played everything, and, thanks to the clashes of the European Championship and the Olympic Games, he became the footballer with more minutes the previous season. This season is going the same way. In his first league game (he joined training last week after returning from Tokyo) Pedri continued tirelessly. Without accusing the minutes played, the canary once again starred in a recital on the pitch with magnificent controls, millimeter passes and being key to the oxygenation of the game in a match not at all comfortable for Barça.
Against the Basque team, Pedri was sixty minutes on the pitch. Ronald Koeman, true to his words at the press conference, sat him on the bench thirty minutes to the end. “He needs a vacation. It is impossible to hold out all the minutes he has played during the season “, announced the coach, aware of the large amount of football that the canary’s legs are dragging and thinking that the season is just beginning.
During these two weeks, Pedri will be exempt from next week’s match against Getafe and from the next call-up with the national team, thanks to the agreement between the Federation and Barça.
