Real Madrid continue to face serious problems in their midfield. The lack of creativity and control in matches is evident and only the entry of Luka Modrić sheds some light. The problem is that Modric is only around for a short while and Madrid needs a creative player now.
Florentino Pérez is clear: he must find a young player who can revitalize this critical area and he has already set his sights on a name he knows well.

Florentino finds his Pedri
The club president is looking for Real Madrid's Pedri. Someone who, like the Barcelona youngster, can change the dynamic of the team and offer creativity. Florentino knows that midfield is the engine of modern soccer, and his team has lost spark in that position. With no solutions within the current squad, the time has come to look outside and it is time for him to return to Madrid.
The young talent who has caught Florentino's attention now plays for Como in Italy. At 20, he has gone from being a mere promise to becoming a revelation. Under the guidance of Cesc Fàbregas, he has been given the freedom to unleash his full potential.
On his debut for Argentina, he assisted Lionel Messi in a crushing victory over Bolivia. Just a few days later, he scored his first goal in Serie A and was voted MVP. These performances have cemented his position as one of the most talked-about names in international soccer.

His time in Italy has been a success and at a modest team like Como, he has shown that he can shine at a competitive level. The choice to represent Argentina, despite being born in Spain, has added even more interest to his figure. Following in the footsteps of his father, who also played for the Albiceleste, the youngster is on the way to surpassing that legacy. At Real Madrid, questions are beginning to arise: was a mistake made in letting him go?
Florentino Pérez is clear about it. The president sees in this player the ideal profile to fill the position that Real Madrid needs to cover in midfield. His technical ability and vision of the game make him perfect to become the white Pedri.
Florentino, aware that Barcelona have found a long-term solution in Pedri, doesn't want to be left behind. He is convinced that he must bring back the young talent to solve the team's creative problems.
And, of course, this is something that is not liked at Barça. Players like Gavi or Pedri himself see Nico Paz as a clear threat at a time when Barcelona can stand up to Madrid. Even if it is from a collective perspective.
