Barca manager Xavi and Iniesta had a long, flawless partnership in the midfield during their playing days at Barcelona and Xavi says Pedri reminds him of his partner in crime, Iniesta.
“Pedri is a wonderful player. He reminds me of Andres Iniesta. Based on talent, I haven’t seen any player in the world like Pedri. He doesn’t like to be praised a lot, but I have to say it out loud,” he said.
“He reminds me of Iniesta, knowing how much he achieved. Based on talent, he is the best in the world.”

When the ball reaches Pedri, the play is better. He has a great vision of the game and he also has the talent to get out of certain situations. When you expect something and the player does something better than what you expect, I want to say that this player is special,” Xavi added.
