Pedro Fernández Sarmiento, known as “Dro”. This name does not necessarily speak to everyone, but in Barcelona the announcement of his probable departure had the effect of an earthquake. Expected to join PSG, where a four and a half year contract would await him this winter, the young 18-year-old crack would be on the verge of turning his back on the Catalan club which he had joined in 2022 after being spotted on the grounds of Galicia, in the north-west of Spain.
It is in Nigrán, a small coastal town about ten kilometers from Vigo, that the phenomenon was born. Registered at the age of 5 at ED Val Miñor, which saw the emergence of brothers Thiago and Rafinha Alcántara before him, the youngest of three boys started with futsal where his magic with the ball did not go unnoticed.
