Former Barcelona chief Ramon Planes has revealed Hansi Flick tried to sign Pedri for Bayern Munich before he moved to Barcelona.
Barca snapped up Pedri from Las Palmas in a brilliant bit of transfer business, but Planes says that Flick was also keen on the midfielder.
“After the defeat against Bayern Munich in Lisbon, two days later, I received a call from his agent telling me that Bayern wanted to do a video conference,” he told Carrusel Deportivo.
“I did it because they wanted Pedri. I was very surprised because he hadn’t even come to Barça.
