Pedrosa, waiting

“Robert Moreno follows him. He likes it a lot ”, commented a member of Espanyol's sports management in the summer of 2019, just after the appearance of Adrià Pedrosa, now a U21 international, was like that of a volcano. It is enough to remember that play against Atlético in which he dodged rivals with his speed and his changes of direction during 80 meters. A play that ended in a goal (3-0).

That season, the one in Europe led by Joan Francesc Ferrer, Rubi, began the promising path of Gavà. He was called to be the starting winger the following course, and that's how it started with David Gallego. But the team did not work and was ostracized after missing a very clear opportunity against Osasuna. The game could be 2-0 in favor of Espanyol. He finally finished 2-4 and was a turning point in the season. In the press room, Pablo Machín, pissed off, pronounced that of “pipiolos”.

After that promotion and relegation, of a frustrating year and a half, Pedrosa could leave Espanyol this summer as well. The full-back does not want to see his progression cut short and is on the lookout, taking into account that Dídac Vilà, who occupies the same position, has renewed. The youth squad does not want to play a secondary role in the Second Division, so he will wait to see Vicente Moreno's intentions to be clear about his future.

Last summer, Pedrosa had a market due to his youth and the expectations generated, although this season it will be more difficult for a convincing offer to arrive for Espanyol. The future of the full-back will be resolved over the weeks, in an operation that is not urgent for a sports management that is now trying to solve the marches of the players with the highest salary.
