"The 18-year-old wonderkid, who was enjoying his breakthrough campaign this term, informed Hansi Flick of his decision this morning at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper. Barcelona had planned to renew Dro's contract once he turned 18, which he did on 12 January, shortly after returning from Saudi Arabia following the Super Cup victory. However, Deco was unable to complete the operation in time."
"As a result, the Catalans are now set to lose one of the most highly regarded prospects from La Masia, now that he is legally able to change clubs at this age. The youngster has offers from teams across Europe, and at this point, his next destination is still unclear. Barcelona, for their part, will make a late attempt to convince him, but as things stand, Dro is bound for the exit doors."
Pedro 'Dro' Fernandez has decided to leave Barcelona in the winter transfer window after paying his €6 million release clause. He informed coach Hansi Flick at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper. Barcelona planned a contract renewal once he turned 18 on 12 January, but Deco could not complete the operation in time. Dro is now legally free to change clubs and has offers from teams across Europe. Barcelona may attempt a late persuasion, but Dro appears set to depart. He joined La Masia in summer 2022, made five first-team appearances totaling 148 minutes and provided one assist.
