Pedri speaks on joining PSG

The Barcelona star admitted to La Vanguardia that a move to Paris Saint-Germain this summer is unlikely.

"I don’t keep an eye on the offers that come my way.
My representatives receive that. I tell them that if they want to listen, they should do it.
And they will tell me but I’m focused on what is important to me, which is to train, play and enjoy. But a lot of things have to happen for me to leave this club.
It would have to be very bad and very unpleasant. I see it as very unlikely, Barça is the club of my dreams and I want to stay for many more years.”

As quoted by Football Espana Pedri would go on to reveal that he is hoping to improve his numbers this season too.

“Last year I had to reach ten goals and ten assists. I didn’t manage to do it. When I got back from the holidays, Xavi told me that this year I had to meet that mark.”

Pedri whose season was marred by injuries would hope he could enjoy an injury-free campaign.
