The 20-year-old Pedro González López, known as Pedri has played 100 games for the Catalan club, becoming a Centurion after playing against Girona on Match Day 19 of the 2022–23 season. He scored the game’s first goal.
The midfielder made his 100th appearance from the bench as manager Xavi had to make a substitution due to winger Dembélé’s injury.
“The talent he has is extraordinary”, said Xavi in the pre-match press conference, “what Pedri has I’ve only seen in a few footballers.”
Pedri’s debut for FCB came in a pre-season friendly against Tarragona, a 3-1 win for Barcelona. His league debut was against Villarreal, where Pedri came on as a second half substitute in a 4-0 win in September 2020. His first start came a month later, in a 1-0 loss to Getafe.
The midfielder scored his first goal for the club in a Champions League win over Fevencváros, becoming the youngest FC Barcelona player to score in the European competition.
He has played 18 times for the Spanish national team but is yet to score.
