Pedri responds to Toni Kroos after Euro 2024-ending tackle – with injured Barcelona star vowing to ‘stay’ in Spain camp as chief cheerleader

Pedri has been at the top of his game for quite a while now having burst onto the scene in 2020 as a 17-year-old, however, life hasn't gone swimmingly as he has struggled with injuries over the last two seasons. He had been in top form for Luis de la Fuente's La Roja but he has <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/huge-spain-blow-pedri-substituted-tears-six-minutes-euro-2024-quarter-final-clash-germany-cruel-injury-blow/bltea5a3bebe19ad459" target="_blank">once again picked up an injury</a> following a reckless foul by Germany's Toni Kroos, who has since apologised to the 21-year-old <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/explained-barcelona-substantial-money-pedri-injury-spain-star-ruled-out-euro-2024-collision-germany-toni-kroos/blt3704897c356f889a" target="_blank">as his Euro 2024 has come to a screeching halt</a>.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The Barca starlet posted a touching message on Instagram, in which he wrote: "I came to Germany for Euro 2024 and I will continue here, until the end. Because the dream, do not doubt it, continues."This week it's time to encourage and contribute in another way to this great family that is @sefutbol. Their support and that of all of you has been incredible. The hardest moment has passed and the road back is now beginning, to soon be at full strength with Barcelona.He also responded to Kroos' apology, adding: "Thank you, Toni Kroos for your message. This is football and these things happen. Your career and your record remain forever."I just want to say one more thing. LET'S GO SPAIN!"

WHAT PEDRI SAID

Pedri's absence will be a big issue for De la Fuente and he will now have to work out a system without him for La Roja's crucial <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/euro-2024-fixtures-group-standings-knockout-bracket-final/blta5937308cc113cf7" target="_blank">semi-final clash against France on July 10 at the Allianz Arena in Munich</a>. It is likely that Dani Olmo, who replaced Pedri in the first half, will be placed in the starting line-up against Les Bleus.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Pedri is definitely set to miss Barcelona's crucial pre-season as they prepare for life under Hansi Flick. Pedri is not expected to return for the start of Barcelona's La Liga campaign on August 18, along with fellow Spanish midfielder Gavi who also suffered a knee injury with La Roja in November of last year.
