"Barcelona continue to feel the absence of Pedri, whose influence in midfield has been impossible to replicate. The team's performances have highlighted just how vital the midfielder is to Hansi Flick's tactical setup, yet despite the growing need for creativity and control, the club has no intention of rushing him back into action. Given his concerning record with injuries, Barcelona's medical staff are prioritising patience and stability over short-term fixes."
"The news of Pedri's latest setback surfaced shortly after Barcelona's 1-2 defeat to Real Madrid, and since then, the midfielder has missed three matches across all competitions. While the club has remained tight-lipped about a specific recovery timeline, many have been eyeing the Athletic Bilbao clash on November 22, which falls right after the international break, as a potential comeback date. That is still not certain"
"However, as reported by MARCA, that target is far from confirmed. The club insists that Pedri's return will depend entirely on how he responds to the next few training sessions. Within the club, the approach will be consistent and cautious, as the midfielder himself is said to be feeling positive, though both the coaching and medical teams have made it clear that there will be no shortcuts this time."
