Pedri: Real Madrid didn't want to sign me
The player passed his medical tests at Barca and is ready to get going
Pedri Gonzalez is close to having his first true day as a Barca player. Despite signing months ago, finally this week he can train for the first time at the club's centre and feel 100% Blaugrana. He will take medical tests and the coronavirus check and work with the great arrival of 2020, Trincao, as well as others like Oriol Busquets and Carles Alena on Thursday.
He spoke to Post United in an interview. "Two or three years ago I went to take tests with Real Madrid. I was there a week but they told me to keep working, they didn't count on me and didn't want to sign me.
"Last year, when I started pre-season with Las Palmas, before finishing it I had signed for Barca, it was my dream since I was a kid. Much better that Barca called me and I had this opportunity."
With regards to a loan, he said: "I'd take it on if I don't get a chance here. There are offers from German teams that are very good. I wouldn't mind playing abroad, the important thing is to play and keep growing. I have to arrive and work as hard as I can to stay here. Let's see if I have the chance to make my dream since I was a kid come true."
