Though recent reports suggest that the Catalan midfielder would be out from action for 5-6 weeks, Pedri's message made it clear that he wants to be at his best as soon as possible. Having another star player out for two months, in the form of Ronald Araujo, Barca hopes the player hits the Barca camp soon as they look forward to kickoff their 2024/25 campaign in style.
