According to AS, which cited unnamed sources, Real Madrid wants to sign a young player known as the \u201cnew Pedri\u201d in homage to the well-known FC Barcelona hero. After Pedri failed a trial with Los Blancos, the midfielder was notably rejected when he was unknown.<\/p>\n
\u201cReal Madrid told me I wasn\u2019t at the right level when I went to try out. In 2020, after his breakthrough at Barcelona, he told El Larguero, \u201cI thank those who told me that I wouldn\u2019t make it, now I am in the team that I have always loved.\u201d \u201cI\u2019ve always worn Barcelona shirts, so it was weird to wear a Madrid shirt,\u201d the 21-year-old, a lifetime Culer whose father served as president of The 21-year-old, a lifetime Culer whose father served as head of a local Barcelona fan group called a \u201cpenya,\u201d continued,<\/p>\n
\u201cI have always gone with Barcelona\u2019s shirt, so it seemed weird to put on a Madrid one. A rare step in the right direction in terms of transfers by then-outgoing President Josep Bartomeu, Barca\u2019s purchase of Pedri from Las Palmas for an initial $5.2 million (\u20ac5 million) in 2019 turned out to be one of the best deals of the century. Bartomeu\u2019s excessive use of the Neymar money to acquire players like Antoine Griezmann, Ousmane Dembele, and Philippe Coutinho, followed by some that helped put the club<\/p>\n
When the pandemic struck, they were on the verge of financial collapse in addition to having no revenue from matchdays. Barca is back on track, both on and off the field, nearly five years later. With his team six points ahead of fierce rival Madrid at the top of the La Liga table, Pedri is perhaps the best version of himself under Hansi Flick right now. He appears to have finally recovered from his injuries.<\/p>\n
It should come as no surprise that competitors would do all in their power to get a young talent known as the \u201cnew Pedri.\u201d AS explains that Aaron Martin, a midfielder and native of Tenerife, is \u201con the agenda of Real Madrid, among others\u201d to bolster its team.<\/p>\n
Martin is \u201cregarded as a piece that can contribute a lot to the Castilla [the reserves] in the near future and to the first team in the long run.\u201d Martin is available for a steal of about $2.1 million (\u20ac2 million), which is less than half of what Barca agreed to spend for its number eight, much like Pedri.Martin, who was promoted from the junior squad to the seniors with few games in the reserves, is praised for his vision of the game and for the accuracy of his right foot. They have been scouting him for some time, but it is unclear which Spanish team will be able to persuade the prodigy and his team that their athletic endeavor is the most suitable for his.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
