Pedri, best young player of the Eurocup

The team of Technical Observers of the Eurocup named Pedri as the best Young Player of the Tournament. Pedri, 18, had played only four international matches before the Euro, but was decisive in the good tournament of Luis Enrique's. The Barça player received widespread praise for his performances, even in the semi-final loss to Italy when he completed 65 of the 66 passes he attempted in 120 minutes of action.

Luis Enrique then said that “what he had done in this tournament, at 18, he had not seen anyone. Not even Andrés Iniesta; it's amazing, unique. “

To be designated the best young player, footballers must have been born on or after January 1, 1998. Performances throughout the tournament, both individually and as part of the team, are taken into account when choosing the winner. The impact of the player on the performance of his team is also taken into account, as well as playing with a positive attitude and respect.

The award is awarded by UEFA Technical Observers: Packie Bonner, Esteban Cambiasso, Fabio Capello, Cosmin Contra, Corinne Diacre, Jean-François Domergue, Dušan Fitzel, Steffen Freund, Frans Hoek, Aitor Karanka, Robbie Keane, Ginés Meléndez, David Moyes, Mixu Paatelainen, Peter Rudbæk, Willi Ruttensteiner
