The Barcelona star Gavi has welcomed his colleague Pedri as the remarkable winner of the 2025 Ballon d’Or, instead of the very covered Raphinha teammate.
Brazilian front was Record form This season, scoring a combined 44 goals and helps with all matches. Hansi Flick admitted that Raphinha “Has a shot” In lifting the Ballon d’Or, while Brazilian coach Dorival Junior rated him as top candidate.
Pedri cannot come close to Raphinha’s contributions-despite the fact that it acts as an aggressive midfielder in a 4-2-3-1 for much of this term-but its intangible influence on the team extends far beyond the cold tough numbers.
“No one is worth the Ballon d’Or more than Pedri. Everyone knows what kind of player he is,” Gavi threw after Barcelona was walking In the Champions League quarter -finals with a victory over Benfica on Tuesday. Saying, Raphinha scored a support, but Pedri was crowned player of the match.
“Pedri is top,” Gavi continued. “Everyone knows what kind of player he is and I am very happy about him because he could not show it last year because of injuries. I can say now, Pedri is the the best average in the world. ”
Availability has not always been a quality for Spain international in recent years. Pedri’s 39 starts in all competitions this season are more than it has gathered in any of the previous three campaigns – which have been hindered by an injury. Despite Flick’s most aggressive approach to this condition, the 22 -year -old has lost only one game all the time, and that was through the disease.
If anything, childhood Barcelona The fan was full of praise for the new Gymnasium regime. “I feel liberated under the movement,” he threw. “Also of course you can see that I am much better to be able to do different things.”
Pedri has only been set for Ballon d’Or in the past, completing 24th in 2021 – the same time lifted the trophy kopa as the best player under 21.
The Barcelona star will surely return to the list for this year’s award. If the club continues their category in three competitions – La Liga leaders are in the Champions League quarter -finals and the Copa del Rey Semis – Pedri and Raphinha could compete with each other for Ballon d’Or Glory.
