Pedri on his early days at Barcelona

Pedri's journey to becoming a Barça regular wasn't smooth. He spent his early days in a hotel, alone and far from home, with only his brother's visits to look forward to. Every night, he'd tell his brother the same hopeful line: 'I hope I can stay at Barça, I hope today's training went well.' The fear of being sent back was real. He didn't have a squad number and felt like any other kid trying to make it. Barça signed him in December 2019, but he continued at Las Palmas for a few more months before arriving in the summer of 2020, still uncertain about his future. Each day was a test, each session a silent evaluation. Then Ronald Koeman looked him in the eyes and said, 'You're staying.' That moment changed everything. Over 150 matches later, with a contract until 2030, he's still that kid who never stopped believing.
