"Rafinha, himself a La Masia graduate, has now shared his thoughts on Dro's decision to leave Barcelona for PSG. In his view, it is understandable that the young Spanish talent chose to move to a club like PSG, especially with Luis Enrique's presence on the bench at Parc des Princes. "Luis Enrique calls you, promises you the world and of course...," he said on DAZN (h/t SPORT)."
""It's understandable," Rafinha added, talking about the player's perspective and motivation in facing a new challenge. The former PSG star also stated that he understood why the news did not go down well at Barcelona, particularly with head coach Hansi Flick, who had counted on Dro in his plans for the future. "I also understand the coach's pain, having trusted him. Losing him must be tough," he said."
Pedro 'Dro' Fernandez, an 18-year-old La Masia attacking midfielder, requested a transfer to PSG during the current window after seeking greater prominence. Barcelona had regarded him as a key future player, but the teenager accepted PSG's approach, influenced by a call from Luis Enrique. Rafinha, a fellow La Masia graduate, described the move as understandable from the player's viewpoint while also recognizing the coach's disappointment after having counted on Dro. Dro featured four times in La Liga and once in the Champions League, registering an assist against Olympiacos. A €6 million release clause was exceeded, with the transfer completed for around €8 million.
