Pedro Rodríguez yesterday became the new reinforcement of Roma, who made the incorporation of the former Barcelona player official. The 33-year-old Canarian winger arrives with the release letter from Chelsea and signs a contract with the Roman club until June 2023.
Pedro left Barcelona in August 2015 and has played the last five seasons in the ranks of Chelsea, which paid the Barça club 27 million euros for the transfer. With the ‘blue’ shirt, Pedro won a Premier, a Fa Cup and a Europa League.
Thus, the 2010 world champion will begin a new stage, in which he will be able to get to know Serie A, after starting in the League and continuing his career in the Premier. With Barça he was European champion three times (2009, 2011 and 2015) and won five Leagues, in addition to three Copa del Rey, four Spanish Super Cups, three European Super Cups and two Club World Cups.
“The Olympic of Rome occupies an important place in my career and now I have the opportunity to play there with the Roma shirt. I feel happy. Very happy to join this club, ”said Pedro in his presentation.
