Pedri: A player like ‘Lewy’ can guarantee Barca goals

FC Barcelona midfielder Pedri appeared before the media to talk about the big game with Real.

“The team is excited to play El Clásico,” Pedri said. "It’s been a very nice preseason and even though now the most important thing is to get minutes, beating Real Madrid would, of course, be good for us. There’s always maximum excitement for El Clásico.“

Barça’s duel against its eternal rival will have several new faces, among them Robert Lewandowski. “A player like ‘Lewy’ can guarantee goals,” Pedri said. “We saw it at Bayern Munich, and we are proud to have him here. We hope he can provide the same level of scoring.”
