Unreal talent. Future Balon D'or winner.

Would be great if we'd really get him.

BTW, I think this thread should be moved until we officially sign him.

According to La Provincia de Las Palmas we'll buy Pedri for 5+1M and he'l stay on loan at Las Palmas.

Amazing talent.

 

[xXKonan]

Must be quite the talent for us to splash 5+1 Million euros on a 16-year-old.

Already playing with Las Palmas first team despite his age.

Too much.

Too early to say, but looks like Denis 2.0 to me.

 

[DonAK]

Looks really underwhelming from the vids I have seen.

 

[God Serena]

Don't like his face, or his nickname.

Sell.

Same.

Although there are very few videos of him available so far., so I will give benefit of doubt to the scouts.I guess they saw something that we couldn't.
Let's see..

Says his agents are currently at Las Palmas offices finalizing the documentation and he will remain there on loan at a price of 5 Million+Variables. Apparently Planes and Abidal were the ones that pushed for this deal as they see him as a future player.

 

[raki]

I trust in Abidal.

It's official now.

He reminds me of a young Joaquin stylistically from the clips.

Need to see a few full games of him though. There's a lot of cases of these young ballers breaking through at 16 (Alvaro Vadillo, Fede Vico) but never reaching the elite level of Spanish football.

But for sure, 5m is nothing these days compared to what those Brazilians went to the capital for.

 

[xXKonan]

Xavi Campos says that he was told that he was a huge talent by people who watched him.

But I heard that same story for ages when it came to young Spanish talents. Think he will probably end up transitioning into a winger when he comes as he's been mostly played as a #10 and seems high up the pitch so often.

 

[EdmondDantes]

He's insanely young.

Never seen him play, but welcome!
