DBasia.news – Pedri is one of the players who will compete in the 2022 World Cup and he has immediately set out his personal mission.
Pedri is included in the list of players brought by the Spanish national team to Qatar. The Barcelona midfielder is even one of the pillars in the game scheme concocted by Luis Enrique.
Making his debut since March last year, Pedri is now almost irreplaceable in the La Furia Roja squad. Maybe it’s just an injury that made him sidelined from the Spanish national team.

“I want to score my first goal for the national team. It would be nice if it happened at the World Cup,” Pedri said as quoted by Mundo Deportivo.
Pedri has not been able to score goals for the senior Spanish national team. From 14 appearances, he was only able to record one assist.
Pedri has valuable capital to realize his ambitions. Throughout LaLiga 2022-2023, he has scored three goals in 14 matches with Barcelona.
This incision certainly adds to Pedri’s confidence to filter the ball into the opponent’s goal. Moreover, his position is an attacking midfielder.
However, Pedri will still prioritize the interests of the team. His main mission is to present the World Cup trophy for his country.
“The previous generation of the Spanish national team made it tough for us as they won everything. Apart from that, we have to fight to win,” he added.
“In this World Cup, all the teams will be at their best physically, and I think that will be decisive.”
