Luis de la Fuente is ready to unleash Barcelona star Pedri in the Netherlands in the coming weeks.
La Roja starts 2025 with a UEFA Nations League Quarter Double -Header against Ronald Koeman's side in Rotterdam and Valencia.
De La Fuente has mentioned seven Barcelona players in his team to face the Dutch, including Pedri's in-form teammate Lamine Yamal.
Pedri's UEFA Euro 2024 campaign was demolished by an injury because he looked for another resignation, but the 22-year-old has since fought back to full fitness after months of fitness issues.
The Canarian is central this season in the triple trophy of Hansi Flick, because he returns to one of Europe's leading all -round midfielders.
De la Fuente is ready to build his midfield unit around Pedri in 2025 – especially in the absence of wounded Star Rodri from Manchester City – and he believes that this is the best we have seen from him for Spain and Barcelona.
“Pedri is one of the best players in the world. He is at a stage of adulthood and performance level that he has never had before. I still think that we have not yet seen the best version of Pedri, “according to reports from Marca.
“We're going to enjoy him. He gives us a lot of versatility in many situations. We want him to be closer to the box, although he plays a little deeper in Barca.
“He gives us many options in midfield. He is the best in the world in that position. We must appreciate what we have in Spain with Pedri and other players. “
Pedri will want to add this month to his counting of international goals, with both Spain goals so far in 2024 in a 5-1 friendly victory in Northern Ireland with five club goals scored for Barcelona in 2024/25.
