Done deal: Barcelona midfield prodigy set to join PSG after activation of release clause | Barca Universal

"The future of Pedro Fernandez 'Dro' is becoming increasingly clearer after the youngster made a shock decision to leave Barcelona this January, amid a lack of game time. PSG have emerged as the frontrunners in the race to sign the young midfield prodigy, who is termed as one of the most gifted players to come out of La Masia in recent memory."

"As reported by Plettenberg, Dro's move to PSG is now a done deal, following total agreement between PSG and the player. PSG have activated Dro's €6 million release clause at Barcelona, with the youngster likely to pen a long-term contract at Parc des Princes. Dro's medical could be slated soon, with the announcement likely to come shortly afterwards. Plettenberg adds that Luis Enrique and PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi had played a key role in convincing Dro to move to the French capital."

Pedro Fernandez 'Dro' has decided to leave Barcelona in January due to limited game time. Paris Saint-Germain have emerged as the primary destination and have activated his €6 million release clause, with a long-term deal expected and a medical likely to follow. Luis Enrique and PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi reportedly helped convince Dro to move to Paris. Barcelona viewed Dro as a potential long-term midfield partner for Pedri but had little scope to renegotiate after his shock decision. The move is a gamble, as recent La Masia departures have struggled to establish themselves.
