As a child, he looked up to Ronaldinho and now he'll play for Barça: new partner for Pedri

The Canary Islander will have help in midfield, and it is known that his reinforcement was amazed by Dinho's play

Pedri is one of those footballers any fan would want on their team, since his level is something out of the ordinary. The Canary Islander has gone through difficult times, but he has found his place under Hansi Flick's orders. At his young age, the midfielder is already acclaimed in many of the stadiums he visits as a guest.

In fact, he has become a role model for all those young people who dream of having control of their team's play. Even though Barça has a very strong midfield, some help is always welcome. Help will arrive soon, and it is known that he has watched Ronaldinho's performances.

Pedri and his reinforcement

Pedri has gone through tough times due to injuries and an excess of matches. It got to the point where, when he went out to play, fans only thought about how long it would take for him to get injured. Fortunately, Hansi has solved this and the Canary Islander's physical level is one of the best in the squad.

This past summer, Pedri underwent a study in the United States in order to find out what kind of training and lifestyle he needed to follow. This study determined the characteristics of his muscles, such as genetics, strengths, and weaknesses. After creating a specific plan for him and finding the right approach, Pedri has become indispensable for Barça.

Although the midfield is currently the best-covered area for Barça, in a matter of weeks a major reinforcement will return. We're talking about Marc Bernal, the young pivot who left Marc Casadó on the bench at the start of the season. Unfortunately, Bernal suffered an injury that kept him out for the entire year.

Marc Bernal returns stronger than ever

Marc Bernal showed a lot of promise, but the serious knee injury forced him to step away from the field. He had just landed in professional soccer and was unlucky enough to face the biggest problem a footballer can have. Anyway, he will return in a matter of weeks, and it is known that he likes Ronaldinho's play style because of a video of him and Lamine Yamal reacting.

In the video, you can see Marc Bernal is amazed by Ronaldinho's skills and the ease he showed on the field. Let's hope we can soon see Marc Bernal enjoy himself the way the Brazilian did.
