Former German international Toni Kroos has declared that FC Barcelona\u2019s rising star Pedri is currently the best midfielder in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pedri is arguably having the best season of his career. The Bar\u00e7a playmaker has been instrumental in the Catalan club\u2019s push for a historic treble\u2014La Liga, the Champions League, and the Copa del Rey. His performances have not only drawn praise from his supporters but also from rivals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Among them is Toni Kroos, the Real Madrid legend, who didn\u2019t hold back his admiration for the young Spaniard. Kroos praised Pedri\u2019s ability to score goals and deliver decisive passes, calling him a player whose absence is always felt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPedri is currently the best in the world at his position, in my eyes,\u201d Kroos said. \u201cHe\u2019s the kind of player you miss when he\u2019s not on the pitch, no matter the opponent. He doesn\u2019t just score or provide assists\u2014he solves problems.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kroos even cited stats to back up his claim. \u201cI\u2019ve watched Pedri closely this season. In the Champions League alone, he outplays an average of 52 opponents per game. In La Liga, it\u2019s even more\u2014he goes past 59 players per match! He gets by 11 to 12 defenders per game, which is incredibly difficult for a midfielder. He\u2019s the best. And when he\u2019s missing, you feel it,\u201d Kroos added, clearly impressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
