Barcelona have confirmed that Pedri is yet to commence full training with his team-mates ahead of the new season as he’s following a specific program.
Pedri has returned to pre-season training this week, along with his Spain team-mates, after a summer spent winning the World Cup with La Roja.
However, he’s been training alone and Barca say it’s part of a special plan and is therefore not injury-related.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Pedri was advised to start pre-season in the gym for “purely physical preparation reasons” and then head out onto the grass which he has now done.
