Pedri previews PSG clash and discusses former teammates
Pedri spoke to reporters on Monday before Barcelona's Champions League match at PSG. He discussed reuniting with former teammates Ferran Torres and Ousmane Dembélé, and he praised Lamine Yamal's current form and mindset. Pedri said he hopes Torres does not score against Barcelona and called Dembélé a great friend.
Pedri, Barcelona’s midfielder and vice-captain, met reporters on Monday before his side’s Champions League trip to face PSG at the Parc des Princes. The Paris club goes into the match as the winner of the last two editions of the competition.
The midfielder is set to meet former teammates Ferran Torres and Ousmane Dembélé on Tuesday. He also used the press conference to discuss current teammate Lamine Yamal, praising his attitude and current level while urging calm and enjoyment.
This story may resonate most with Barcelona and PSG supporters, who could see the match through personal reunions as well as sporting stakes. Pedri’s praise of Lamine Yamal may shape how fans and young players discuss handling early fame, while his comments about former teammates could soften rivalries by highlighting friendship. Media coverage of such remarks may add emotional interest to the Champions League tie, though its broader social effect is likely limited to football audiences.
