Saturday 11-01-2025

Barcelona midfield star Pedri appeared in a press conference, to talk about tomorrow’s confrontation against Real Madrid, in the Spanish Super Cup final.


The player said: “We “In good condition, and the dressing room is excited to play a final. There is always an extra incentive when there is a title at stake, and I think facing Real Madrid motivates any player. Everyone is looking forward to tomorrow’s match.”


He added: “A lot of Real Madrid fans are in Saudi? And not on what happens outside it.”


He continued: “I am living my best period with Barcelona. For a while, I did not have this stability every time I went out in a press conference or in Interview, I always get asked about injuries, as if they are waiting for something to happen "What, but in the end, I think this is the result of the work I put in to get to the best possible condition. I'm very happy to continue and to be able to enjoy football, because this is what I love."


He stressed: “The future of Araujo? There is competition here, which is important for the team, and then the coach will have a difficult task to choose who will play, but I think this is in our interest. We have two players for each position who can play perfectly, and this is very good for the level of the team.”


And he continued: “Your favorite position? It doesn't matter which one I play, playing near the penalty area gives you the opportunity to make the decision on the final pass and be more present in the penalty area, while playing in the midfield puts you in greater contact with the ball. I think I now feel very comfortable in the number 8 position, approximately, where I am in contact. Continues with the ball.”


He added: “Share Olmo and Victor? It was good news, because the situation was very difficult for them, it is difficult to know that you cannot play, I tried to console Dani Olmo, especially since he was sitting with me at the dining table. Taking a trip to Saudi Arabia with uncertainty about whether or not they can play is complicated. They will contribute a lot to the team in the coming period.”


Regarding renewing his contract: “Everything is going as it should.” Fine. But now is not the time to talk about renewal, especially before an important final. I am now fully focused on winning the final tomorrow more than the issue of renewal with Barcelona. This matter will come later, but the fans can remain calm.”


He added: “Repeating the performance.” What we presented in the last Clásico will be difficult because they will also want revenge, and as I said, they have already talked about that, but I think we need to impose our control on the match by possessing the ball and controlling the tempo of the game. Real Madrid is strong in counterattacks, they have players Fast and very high quality. Therefore, the most important thing is to control the match by possessing the ball, creating chances, and defending well.”


He continued: “We must work, enjoy football, and win to help the club.” When you win a title, you help the club more financially. Tomorrow's match is an opportunity to help the club a little more and get things back to normal.”


He concluded: “Did you threaten not to play for the Spanish national team because of the Olmo case? No, not true. We did not refuse to play for the Spanish national team. Personally, I would love to play for the national team. This is just a lie, and I hope no one believes it.”
