Director Borussia Moncheng: Barca had refused our offer to rent Pedri, and that was a wise decision

Recently, Möncheng's sports director Ebel revealed in an interview with Sports Bild that in the summer of 2020, Borussia Borre, who sought a loan from Barca, was rejected by the latter.

Eber said: "At that time we had a very in-depth look at Pedri and were convinced that he had outstanding potential. We also had detailed discussions on loan with the player himself, his agent and Barca. But unfortunately, Barca told us that they did not want to rent the player. As we saw today, it was a wise decision. ”

In September 2019, Barca poached the under-17-year-old Pedri from Las Palmas for a transfer fee of 5 million euros, and was subsequently loaned back to the team for a season. In the summer of 2020, Pedri expired on loan and began officially playing for Barca.
