Pedri labels Real Madrid as ‘best shirt swap’ at Barcelona

Barcelona star Pedri has opened himself in his midfield idols in an excellent interview with the media channels of the club.

Pedri has returned to full fitness and influence this season and takes its place in the engine room for club and country, to brilliant effect.

The 22-year-old is the circle in his fitness battle to take his place again as one of the world's best midfielders and the support point of Hansi Flick's plans.

Pedri has put itself in a position to dominate for years to come and his humility remains an important feature because his star in Catalonia continues to rise, as demonstrated in a contract extension.

As part of a wide range, Pedri was asked about his role models in midfield, and his view of Barcelona teammates, including his old friend Gavi.

“I like food, but to cook I go to my brother or mother, everyone except Gavi! Now they don't let me eat my mother's croquettes. I stay with tuna belly, “according to quotes worn by Mundo Deportivo.

“I don't like Gavi like a rival, but I like him to eat with. I love Fermín for a trip. But he doesn't want to come to Tenerife, even though he is invited.

When asked which rival shirt change he has held – and appreciates the highest – Pedri opted for a shock choice, but in a clear nod to his vision of world class midfielders.

“I have the shirt from Luka Modric, he won a balloon d'Or, and not just anyone can achieve that in their career.”

On the subject of other teams and players he admires, Pedri chose Premier League holders Manchester City, and their long -term midfield Metronome Kevin De Bruyne, as the benchmarks outside of Spain.

“I love Manchester City. I admire Andres Iniesta in my position and also Kevin De Bruyne. Would I ask for his shirt? Yes.”
