Former Spain national team and Arsenal star Santi Cazorla shared his thoughts on Barcelona's two talented players — Pedri and Lamine Yamal. The two-time European champion highly praised the playing style of the Catalan midfielder. Goal.com reports on this.
Cazorla, who continues his career with Real Oviedo despite being 41 years old, did not hide that he is a true fan of Pedri. He revealed that he asked the young midfielder for his jersey after a match against Barcelona this season.
Cazorla noted that 23-year-old Pedri's vision on the field is reminiscent of legends like Xavi and Andres Iniesta. "At his age, he is considered one of the best in the world.
When Pedri is not on the field, the team feels his absence very strongly," the experienced player said.
While acknowledging Lamine Yamal's talent, Cazorla explained that he still has a greater affinity for midfielders. According to him, since he played in the same position as Pedri during his career, he watches his movements with more interest.
Currently, both players are with the Spanish national team, preparing for the 2026 World Cup qualifying matches. Luis de la Fuente is expected to focus on these stars in the team's future plans.
