WHAT HAPPENED?
Pedri joined Barcelona from Las Palmas in the summer of 2020 and on Tuesday he brought up the 100th time he has played at least 45 minutes in a game for the Catalan side. While that may have been a momentous moment for the 21-year-old, the Blaugrana now have to pay his old team a sizeable sum.
