Pedri has described La Masia as “the soul” of the club and hailed the confidence manager Hansi Flick has given Barcelona’s youngsters.
Flick has been willing to trust the likes of Marc Bernal, Inaki Pena, Marc Casado, Pau Cubarsi and Lamine Yamal this season, and Pedri says it’s massive for the players.
“It’s very important. The confidence that the coach gives to all the young players that are coming up, they give it back with good play.
“This allows them to gain confidence and have more freedom to dare to try out things,” he told ESPN,
“We are seeing a lot of players that are coming out of La Masia and it’s the soul of this club.
