Barcelona received a pleasant surprise regarding their upcoming match against Real Madrid in the La Liga Clasico on April 21. Barcelona had previously announced that Pedri was suffering from an injury to the rectus femoris muscle in his right thigh, with Spanish reports stating that he would be sidelined for 5 to 6 weeks, putting him at risk of missing the anticipated match against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu.
According to the Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo," new tests conducted on Pedri revealed that the new injury is not in the same location as the previous setback. They noted that the new injury is in a favorable area of the muscle group and that he is not suffering from a significant tear. This indicates that the severity of the injury is less than expected, and the player is expected to recover in time to participate against Real Madrid in the Clasico.
