Former Barcelona attacker heaps praise on talented midfielder - "He's a role model" | Barca Universal

"Pedri is one of the players Barcelona are dearly missing due to injury right now, and it has cost the team dearly so far. Pedri's ability to orchestrate play in the middle of the park is something that has been missing in the Barcelona team lately. The young midfielder, who is one of the nominees for FIFA's The Best award this year, also used to provide the creative spark in midfield. That has been missing, too."

"One of the individuals who has been able to recognise the absence of Pedri is former Barcelona star Nolito. Nolito praises Pedri In a recent interview with Que Thi Jugues, Nolito has heaped praise on Pedri and his mentality as well as temperament. "I'm infatuated with Pedri; he's a straightforward guy, never complains, and has incredible soccer potential," he said."

"Pedri has indeed earned many plaudits because of the way he operates on and off the field. He is widely renowned for his calm and composed attitude. Nolito added that the Spanish international is a role model for any budding midfielder who is looking to make it big at the highest level of football. "He's a role model to emulate for any soccer player," the former attacker said."

Pedri's injury absence has left Barcelona lacking midfield orchestration and creativity, costing the team valuable performance. The young midfielder previously orchestrated play, provided the creative spark, and earned nomination for FIFA's The Best award. A former Barcelona star heaped praise on Pedri, describing him as straightforward, never complaining, with incredible soccer potential. Pedri is widely renowned for a calm, composed attitude and is cited as a role model for aspiring midfielders aiming for top-level football. Past praise has repeated this assessment. Barcelona currently lack a viable alternative for the midfield maestro and hope for a prompt return to action.
