Pedri celebrating victory with Spain at the FIFA World Cup

Spain secured FIFA World Cup glory after Ferran Torres struck a decisive winner, crowning eight Barcelona players as world champions. Pedri proved pivotal during the tournament, providing creativity off the bench and creating the most chances in the final against Argentina.

According to Mundo Deportivo, the Canary Islander has chosen to cut his holiday short. While his international teammates prepare for a three-week break before joining Hansi Flick in August, Pedri will take only seven days off before resuming work.

Based on reports from Spain, Pedri will begin a personal training program in the Canary Islands alongside a trusted fitness coach. The midfielder aims to build a controlled workload and maintain peak physical condition before joining Barcelona's official pre-season camp.

Fitness setbacks have plagued the elite midfielder in recent seasons. By establishing a physical routine early, Pedri hopes to maintain consistency ahead of the new La Liga campaign while avoiding the risk of burnout.
