Former La Liga player shows concern about Barcelona midfielder Pedri's injury

Former Villarreal defender Pau Torres has claimed that Xavi Hernandez should give Pedri rest because the Spanish midfielder has been suffering from injuries since the Tokyo Olympics. He said (via Relevo):

“If Barca had decided to give him his rest time, I think that Pedri, today, would be better physically, because he has been suffering from injuries since that moment.”

“I think that he is not enjoying football, and neither is Spanish football because he is a different player that Spain and La Liga need.”

In his debut year with the La Liga Giants, Pedri played around 75 games for Barcelona as well as Spain. Since then, the Spanish midfielder has missed several games due to various injuries. He's expected to make his return for the Bluagrana against Real Sociedad, this weekend.

This season, Pedri has made only a couple of appearances for the defending La Liga champions. He has been sidelined due to a hamstring injury that he suffered during a training session in August.
