Pedri is undoubtedly considered one of European football's most exciting prospects having already made his mark in Barca's first team as well as the Spain national team.

With Lionel Messi's time at the club now a thing of the past and former midfielder Xavi now in the dugout, Pedri is in the unique position of being the club's most promising and perhaps most consistent performers.

As such, there's every chance that the future of the club will be built around the young star in midfield.

According to SciSport, Pedri has a potential of 132.4, which is above fellow first team stars Segino Dest and Ansu Fati, while fellow Spaniard Gavi comes in fourth with a rating of 108.8.
