But he is a fringe player now with Suarez there. Why is she so upset? Makes perfect sense for him to leave Barca if he isn't going to get games.
Correction: he is a reject (unless the Chelsea rumours turn out to be true). I've saved London's Biggest **** the trouble, he owes me a favour now!
"The player was here working at a soccer school a few weeks back and his friends already know he is going," Lorenzo told Cadena Ser. "And the other day I saw Pedro’s mum in a furniture shop and she told me that he is going to England. I believe it's a good challenge for him and it means he will get more playing time."
Have we reached the £300m NET spend which I believed was needed when we went on the slide at the end of Moyes's stay? At that time I said we needed that amount for a wholesale reconstruction of the team. Anyway, who is this Pedro? is he in the top 10 strikers in the world? Is he a better player than Rooney and if not why are we buying him?. Like someone will inevitably say he is a Barca reject. But then we have only been able to get Bayern, Madrid barca PSV Athletico rejects. But beggars cannot be choosers. We will acquire any top player that will improve our previously poor squad, rejects or not.
Pedro - scored the most goals since 2009 for Barcelona bar Messi. I don't know too much about him as he's a lesser name within a team of superstars but he scores goals, is quick and the sort of player who would fit a manager like LvGs ideas. He was also favoured over Sanchez when both played for Barcelona. Both featured heavily though.
Fck me I'd rather a Barca reject like Pedro than a Fiorentina reject like Cuadrado for £27m. Anyway it seems Pedro prefers United to Chelsea and that's what's got chavs like London's Only so upset.
You have to credit the way the guy is conducting himself - no agitating for a move away, no bleating to the press, just getting on with training and will move quietly as and when the time comes. Seems a solid guy who will bring something more than just talent to the club.
Reports coming in deal is agreed... A £22.3 million (€32m) fee has been agreed between the two clubs, but the Catalans are keen for the forward to stay with them until after the Uefa Super Cup next Tuesday Manchester United and Barcelona have reached agreement over the transfer of Pedro, but the Champions League holders are keen to retain the player until after next week's Uefa Super Cup. The two sides have settled on a transfer fee of £18.1 million (€26m) initially, with a potential further £4.2m (€6m) to be paid in variable bonuses. But the European champions face Europa League winners Sevilla in the traditional season curtain-raiser in Tbilisi on Tuesday, and want to be able to call upon Pedro to play a part. Lionel Messi and Neymar have only recently returned from an extended break following their Copa America commitments, and neither is likely to play a full 90 minutes in the Super Cup clash. As a result Pedro is likely to play a significant role before finalising a move to Old Trafford, meaning United will begin the Premier League season against Tottenham on Saturday without the 28-year-old in the squad.
bargain. Not jumping for joy but he's played 100s of games for Barcelona and survived far bigger names coming and going. I like the stat about him being Barcelonas top scorer after messi too. Pedro Rooney depay Some attack.
Just paper talk until he puts pen to paper, if we don't sign him it's because he rejected us if we do sign him it's because he's a barca reject. Hopefully he can be as good as that other reject Sanchez
The ticket office just called and asked me to sign up for a season ticket. I asked them whether we were signing Pedro. Frank, who works as a part time sales assistant to help fund his Clash of Clans addiction, told me on the quiet that it's a done deal. 2 year deal which will take him to the age of 30. After that he has to perform a new party trick in front of LVG, Giggs and Edwood Woodwood in order to get a new one year contract. Don't tell anyone though, I'm ITK but am not supposed to share this info.
