With Ronald Koeman, the young players have won a lot of weight in the first staff of the FC Barcelona. First destapó Ansu Fati, that with 17 years is the maximum goleador culé in the present season with five so many; afterwards it settled in the side Sergiño Dest, recently arrived of the Ajax with 19; and definitely one of which generates more illusion is Pedri, headline in two so big parties like the ones of the Real Madrid and the Juventus.

The FC Barcelona paid five million euros by the Canarian to the UD The Palms, left it yielded in the team of Pepe Mel and the initial plan was to look for him a team of First Division in which it could 'foguearse' playing to the maximum level. However, the arrival of the coronavirus caused an important economic crisis that limited the capacity of fichar of the Barcelona club, by what the jovencísimo mediapunta turned into part of the big change that carried out in the staff culé.

Pedri, loved in the Barça

On the contrary of what expected at the beginning, the irruption of Pedri has been important, obtaining a leadership that has won to base of big performances. But, for the one who knows him, is not at all odd that the Canarian have taken so little in winning a place in the team. Rocco Maiorino, ex sportive director of the UD The Palms, spoke on his progression and his back sale in statements for 'TMW'.

Rocco Maiorino explained that in the UD The Palms did not take too much in darse that Pedri was a special player, of big quality and mental maturity in spite of being young. "In the first training saw that it was special. In his first rondo never went to the half, was something at all common. What more happened the time, more understood that we were in front of a humble boy, intelligent, that never made a mistake, in any position or situation", commented.

The ex sportive director of the UD The Palms also commented that Pedri turned into a player of such status in the team, that his mates gave him the balloon in key moments. "It put of his part and was not difficult to integrate it in the team. Still it does not have personality to be a leader, is of November of 2002, but all the world recognised it in the field. In the moments of difficulty the mates looked for him", signalled.

His sale to the FC Barcelona

Finally, Rocco Maiorino explained how gestó the sale of the young crack to the FC Barcelona. "If The Palms had not had economic difficulties, was not a sale to do immediately. I listened to Ramón Plans and thought that it would be ideal for the FC Barcelona. In a friendly against the Betis in the previous pre-season, came Bakero to see it and negotiate the traspaso in August. We sold it by 5 millions, with bonus could arrive to 30, with a percentage for The Palms in the case of a future sale", manifested.
