Pedro, born in June 1997, debuted in the Flominense echelon, where he attracted the attention of European clubs after his debut. Finally, he joined Purple Lily Fiorentina in 2019 for a transfer fee of 11 million euros. The team had high hopes for him, or they would not have given him the number 9 shirt, which symbolizes the main team.
Pedro was indeed a little unlucky back then. Because he didn't join until September 1, he missed the run-in of the pre-season warm-up. And after joining, he missed the first two league games due to injury. In the Fiorentina squad, there are Ribery, Chiesa Junior and Boateng the Elder, and on the bench is Vlahovic the "Serbian King Leehom" who will become popular in Serie A.
It wasn't until the 8th round of the league that he came off the bench. It wasn't until the round of 11 against Parma that he earned his first first-team appearance. Over the course of half a season, he made only four appearances for the first team, a measly 59 minutes.
Moreover, the team was not in good form at that time, and in the four games he played, the team drew 1 and lost 3. Because he didn't have enough playing time, he only scored 0 goals and 0 assists.
On 24 January 2020, he returned to his parent side Flamengo after a short Serie A trip. The following season (the Brazilian League is not a New Year's Eve format), he played 42 games for the team, scoring 12 goals and providing 5 assists. In the end, the team bought him out for 14 million euros, and the deal proved to be the right deal.
After the start of the new season, he gradually got into shape, and goals followed. Under the guidance of his and Barbosa-led strikers, Flamengo have conquered cities in all competitions. In the Copa Brasil, the team beat Atletico Mineiro, Atlético Paranaense, Sao Paulo and other teams all the way to the final, and in the final with Corinstián, Flamengo won on penalties and lifted the trophy.
Pedro played a key role in the cup. Not only did he score in the second leg of the final, but he also provided two assists in the second leg of the 1/8 knockout round to help the team win 2-0 and get through the game 3-2 on aggregate.
In the Copa Libertadores, the dude scored a lot of goals, scoring 12 goals and 2 assists in 13 games. He scored a hat-trick against Tolima and Sarsfield in the knockout rounds (one of his senior years) and ended up winning not only the Copa Libertadores but also the Golden Boot.
In addition, he also has 11 goals and three assists in the league, which is undoubtedly good considering that he has only played 24 league games. Throughout the season, the player has scored 29 goals and provided 10 assists in 59 appearances in all competitions. Especially after entering September and October, he was in excellent form and scored a lot of goals.
Such a good state naturally made him finally selected for the World Cup squad of the Brazilian national team. He proposed to his girlfriend after learning the good news and performed a romantic scene.
His goal in a friendly against Ghana in September also showed his excellent competitive form, which led the boss to finally decide to take him to Qatar. However, in the star-studded national team, even Firmino can not be selected, it is difficult for players like him to get too many opportunities to perform, so in this World Cup, he can get an experience card, if he wants to get too much playing time, forget it.
