Pedro “Dro” Fernández is being pursued by Paris Saint-Germain in an attempt to move swiftly and outpace the increasingly formidable opposition. According to a recent report from SPORT, PSG is keen to finalize the transfer as soon as possible despite the fact that Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City are still very much interested.
According to reports, the Ligue 1 team has already taken significant action behind the scenes because they do not want to run the danger of losing control of the issue. In truth, Joan Laporta has been personally approached by PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi to initiate direct negotiations in order to arrange a transfer without activating the player’s release clause.
For weeks, Dro’s future at Barcelona has been in jeopardy, but things picked up speed once the midfielder made his intentions known. The athlete told Hansi Flick straight out that he was leaving during the January transfer window.
PSG poised to sign Barcelona teenager by triggering release clause
Pedro Fernández Sarmiento and PSG have reportedly reached an agreement on a four-and-a-half-year deal that will last until June 2030, according to the French press. Barcelona and its coach, Hansi Flick, who had incorporated the offensive midfielder into his plans and gave him his first playing time with the first squad in September of last year, are particularly hurt by this decision.
Dro even started a UEFA Champions League game, but despite playing in several FC Barcelona games, he hadn’t played a minute since December, leading him to fear that his career at Barcelona was doomed. The Catalan press claims that Flick was devastated to hear of his protégé’s leaving.
The player’s contract flaw—his six million euro release clause, which PSG will activate—is suddenly the main emphasis. The Parisian team has reportedly spoken with FC Barcelona about this, according to information from RMC. Since the player must supply the money, the payment of release conditions is always a technical matter in Spain, thus this is one of the last steps in the process that will send Dro Fernandez to France.
