During their appearance on the Spanish show “El Hormiguero”Pedri and Ferran Torres offered a rare insight into daily life and the discipline imposed by Hansi Flick at FC Barcelona. Taking advantage of a day off, the two internationals spoke about their complicity in the locker room, Pedri’s return to form after his hamstring injury and the attention paid to the health and performance of teammates. They also detailed the famous late fines imposed by Flick, ranging up to €40,000 for being 10 minutes late on match day.

But the moment that particularly caught the attention concerns the captain of the France team: if Pedri and Ferran Torres were to recruit a player from Real Madrid, their choice would fall on Kylian Mbappé. A strong revelation which reflects not only their admiration for the French striker, but also the vision they have of strengthening the squad. If the current striker, Robert Lewandowski, is indeed leaving, Kylian Mbappé should never join the sworn enemy of the White House. However, Atlético de Madrid’s Argentinian Julián Álvarez could well be heading to Catalonia next summer.
