English Premier league giants, Manchester United are strongly negotiating with Barcelona over the £21.3million buyout clause in Pedro’s contract at the Nou Camp.
Man United
are understood to have offered £17.7m plus £3.6m in add-ons in an
attempt to sign the Spain star who wants to leave Barca in search of
more first-team football.
Manchester
City are monitoring the situation but have not made any bids. It is
known that City would pay the asking price in full if they decide to
follow up their interest, though they are wary of being used by
Barcelona to put pressure on United.
Enrique admitted that he is in the dark over the player’s future, saying: ‘We all know the situation that Pedro is experiencing. We want him to stay, but it's a difficult decision. Nothing has changed yet, but it will change.
‘Pedro
is in a difficult situation. He’s a player who wants to stay but also
wants more minutes. All the fans understand the Pedro situation.
'He has been, is and always will be loved by Catalans because of his professionalism.’
Pedro started against Athletic Bilbao in
the Spanish Super Cup on Friday, having come off the bench to score a
dramatic extra-time winner in the UEFA Super Cup final against Sevilla
on Tuesday.
