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.
