Player Review
The price of this SBC is slightly off-putting, however, the incredible 92 Dribbling does stand out as someone who can run the game from midfield.
Pedri also lacks the Shooting or Defending stats to really make him a box-to-box midfielder, something most FUT fans crave.
If you are someone who prefers to control the game and keep the ball moving, then Pedri will be excellent, especially given his excellent 5-Star Weak Foot ability.
Unfortunately, those looking for a more physical presence in either attack or defence will need to look elsewhere for the next midfielder.
