Pedro said to be joining Chelsea
Print Edition
PREMIER League champions Chelsea have pipped Manchester United to the signing of Spain winger Pedro Rodriguez from Barcelona, according to British press reports yesterday.
The BBC reported that Chelsea had agreed a fee of £21 million (US$32.9m) with the reigning European champions and that the 28-year-old was on a flight to London to finalise terms.
If completed, the deal will bring an end to a summer-long transfer saga surrounding Pedro, who had been linked to Manchester City as well as United.
Pedro scored the winning goal for Barcelona in last week’s dramatic 5-4 extra-time defeat of Sevilla in the UEFA Super Cup in Tbilisi.
However, he has fallen down the pecking order at the Camp Nou.
Meanwhile, Barcelona defender Gerard Pique will miss the first four matches of the new La Liga season for abusing match officials in the European champions’ Spanish Super Cup defeat to Athletic Bilbao, Spanish football’s disciplinary committee confirmed yesterday
Pique was shown a straight red card in the second leg of the tie on Monday, which ended 1-1, as Barca failed to overcome a 4-0 first leg deficit.
