Barcelona have emerged as the standout team in Europe this season under the leadership of Hansi Flick.
While much of the club’s success can be attributed to the deadly attacking trifecta of Robert Lewandowski, Lamine Yamal and Raphinha, Pedri is another player who has impressed onlookers.
The young midfielder, who suffered a major injury blow during Euro 2024, has made a stellar comeback and has now emerged as a top performer for Barcelona in the middle of the park.
Flick satisfied with Pedri’s performance
A recent report from MARCA has offered a comprehensive update on Pedri, who has had a pass success rate of 90% in his recent matches.
The report notably suggests that Flick is delighted with Pedri’s performances on the pitch, with the player racking up three goals and two assists this season.

What has been particularly impressive about Pedri this season, though, is the fitness levels he has shown so far.
The Spaniard has been involved in all 11 La Liga matches as well as the three Champions League matches. His presence in the Barcelona midfield has added stability and creativity in the middle of the park.
Road ahead for Pedri
Following an excellent start to the season, the key task for Pedri now will be to maintain his solid form in the months to come.
One interesting thing to note will be how Flick manages his midfield unit, now that Frenkie de Jong is back and showing a lot of confidence.
Juggling between de Jong, Marc Casado and Pedri could be a challenging task for the German tactician, especially considering that there is equal competition for the number ten position as well.
