The new FC Barcelona player Pedro González 'Pedri' explained that “associative football” is his “greatest virtue” as a footballer and that he arrives at the Barça club with the intention of “making the rest play” and having fun playing football.
“Associative football is my greatest virtue. My goal is to make others play and have fun playing football (…) I feel comfortable playing as a midfielder, although it is also true that I have played extreme on both sides and it is good to have alternatives to be versatile. This is very important for a player because that way the coach can count on you for other positions, “Pedri explained in statements to the official Barça media.
The 17-year-old canary explained that his “first goal is to debut“.” I haven't done it yet and I'm looking forward to it. I have to improve and work to achieve it. Also, whatever the debut, I will always remember it. “It will be the most special day of my life, because I have always dreamed of it, “he acknowledged.
After his arrival from UD Las Palmas, Pedri stressed that “playing such a tough category in the Second Division” has helped him “gain confidence” before his arrival at Barcelona, where he has been training for several weeks. “They have welcomed me very well and I am very happy. I am very happy to have this opportunity. The Sports City is a luxury. I hope to enjoy these facilities for many years to come. I have been impressed. From the first moment that I have met my colleagues I have felt very good. With Trincao, for example, we have understood each other very well, as with Matheus. I really want to enjoy all my teammates and learn from them, “he said.
