In that sense, Pedri stated that he felt physically well despite the load of games with Barça and the National Team. "I'm finding my body. When you relapse, you look for solutions until you find the key. I have found what suits me and I have the continuity that I like," explained the 21-year-old footballer.

Pedri, happy for his role in the National Team, despite the debate with Dani Olmo

When referring to his role on the field, the one from Tegueste reiterated that he felt comfortable with Hansi Flick and Luis de la Fuente, beyond having alternated more minutes in La Roja since his injury during the Euro Cup. "Both in the national team and in Barça I feel comfortable. It's a great start to the season and I hope it will be for a long time."

In this regard, De la Fuente himself settled the debate about the reasons why Pedri and Dani Olmo do not play together in the National Team. For the coach, "it is very easy to combine them", so it is not worth insisting on the issue.

"We have such good players and so many options that sometimes we have to play with that lineup and other times with another. They can play together, but also with other teammates. It's not a debate. I don't see it that way, quite the opposite," the coach pointed out. Rioja. This Monday, in Tenerife, it is likely that the '8' culé will start at home, while the one from Terrassa, who appears in Copenhagen, could rest.
