Maximum caution for Pedri
“Maximum caution for Pedri,” reads the Sport newspaper. Caution is essential around Pedri. Hansi Flick chose to substitute him at halftime against Atlético de Madrid as a precaution due to a slight muscle overload. A key piece of the FC Barcelona midfield, the player wanted to continue the match, but the staff preferred not to take any risks to avoid any setbacks in this decisive end of the season. He is expected to be managed against Espanyol in La Liga. A logical choice for a player previously affected by physical setbacks. Especially with Frenkie de Jong absent and Marc Bernal limited by an ankle injury, Pedri could be vital in the Champions League quarter-final return on Tuesday.
Bad news for De Zerbi before his debut
In London, “big blow for Kudus” announces the Daily Mail. The Tottenham winger suffered a new thigh injury during training after returning from three months of absence. This setback, occurring before Roberto De Zerbi’s first match against Sunderland, is likely to require surgery and end the Ghanaian’s season. Kudus, who arrived at Spurs for 60 million euros until 2024, has only scored three goals. This bad news for De Zerbi adds to the injuries of Bentancur, Richarlison, Davies, and Bergvall.
AC Milan targets Lewandowski
“Milan, take me away,” headlines the Gazzetta dello Sport about Robert Lewandowski. The 37-year-old Polish player is out of contract with Barcelona this summer and has attracted interest from AC Milan to revitalize their European ambitions. Despite his age, he has scored 12 goals in La Liga this season, more than any other Rossoneri player. He could sign as a free agent, without a transfer fee, despite a salary exceeding 15 million euros annually. However, the Italian media also mention Juventus being involved in the deal.
