Pedri Gonz\u00e1lez is, without a doubt, the best midfielder in the world right now, and several teams dream of signing him. One of them is Manchester City, a club that already showed interest in the Spanish international in 2024<\/strong>, despite the ongoing injuries that hampered the Canarian’s performance in the previous two seasons.<\/p> Last summer, some outlets leaked the supposed interest of the Manchester team in exploring ways to lower the cost of the operation, including the offer of Matheus Nunes as part of the deal<\/a>. This proposal, logically, never attracted the interest of Bar\u00e7a. Now, the City’s need to incorporate a creative midfielder has intensified due to injuries in their squad and the lack of consistency in midfield in the 24-25 season.<\/p> Hence, the ‘sky blue’ team is willing to put a record figure for Pedri (over 100 million euros), especially if the team ultimately decides to part ways with ‘heavyweights’ like Kevin De Bruyne, Jack Grealish, and \u0130lkay G\u00fcndogan<\/strong>. The Tenerife native recently renewed with Bar\u00e7a until 2030, and his release clause remains at 1,000 ‘kilos’. Therefore, for the Bar\u00e7a management, the ‘8’ is untouchable.<\/p> Despite the presence of other midfielders like Dani Olmo and Ferm\u00edn L\u00f3pez in the Bar\u00e7a squad, Pedri remains fundamental to the sports project of Bar\u00e7a. Since the arrival of Hansi Flick, the Canarian has overcome his physical problems, making an impressive leap in quality<\/strong> by positioning himself a bit further back on the field, near the defensive pivot, where he has much more contact with the ball.<\/p> The ‘8’ feels very comfortable in that position, where he has established himself this season as the best ‘playmaker’ in the world. No other player has as much influence on the game as the one from Tegueste, who also boasts exceptional physical condition to help in recovery. Bar\u00e7a plays at Pedri’s pace, who seems omnipresent in all areas of the field. Not for nothing, he has 8 consecutive MVPs in LaLiga this 2025<\/a>.<\/p> Given the circumstances, Pep Guardiola will have to shift his radar elsewhere to once again have a formidable midfield in his City<\/strong>. The Catalan coach renewed for one more season, but his continuity remains debated by the English press due to the poor performance of a team that still risks missing out on the next Champions League.<\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Manchester City is looking for a ‘playmaker’: will Pedri be the chosen one?
