Pedri Says He Dreams of Winning the Ballon d’Or but is Focused on Barcelona’s Success Now
Barcelona midfielder Pedri has revealed that winning the Ballon d’Or is a goal he dreams of achieving in the future.
Speaking ahead of Barcelona’s UEFA Champions League semifinal against Inter Milan, Pedri pointed to Manchester City’s Rodri as an example, noting that midfielders who control the game now have a chance at winning the prestigious award.
While he acknowledged his ambition, Pedri stressed that his focus remains on helping Barcelona succeed as a team. “Winning the Ballon d’Or has always been my dream,” he said. “But right now, I’m focused on helping the team win three titles. That’s the most important thing.”
Pedri, who played a key role in Barcelona’s recent Copa del Rey win over Real Madrid, added that after the season concludes, he’ll reassess and see if it’s the right time to think about individual honors. With Barcelona fighting for the La Liga title and a Champions League semifinal spot, the young midfielder’s focus is squarely on the team’s goals.
Manchester City secured a 3–0 victory over Chelsea in their Premier League clash on Sunday, April 12, 2026.
The win brings City closer than ever to Arsenal at the top of the table, raising questions about whether Arsenal can maintain their position.
It can be recalled that Arsenal recently suffered a loss to Bournemouth, which has added pressure in the title race.
Captain of the Morocco national team, Achraf Hakimi, has shared his thoughts on the controversial topic surrounding AFCON 2025.
It can be noted that the team was accused of taking towels belonging to opposition goalkeepers during matches, which sparked criticism from fans and observers, with many calling for consequences.
Hakimi expressed his disappointment over the situation, stating “I don’t feel proud about the image we gave off with the towels. Even though that happened, the team did well in the competition. We showed respect for our opponents in the tournament.”
Ademola Lookman has praised Atlético Madrid following their 2–0 victory over Barcelona.
It can be noted that the match ended 2–0, with goals scored by Julián Álvarez and Alexander Sørloth.
Speaking in a recent interview, Lookman commended the team’s performance and unity “It was a good result. The performance of the team, especially not to concede here, shows the work everyone’s been doing and the togetherness.”
