Pedri in Euro 2020 Team of the Tournament
Praise has been raining relentlessly down on Pedri González for his amazing performances at Euro 2020. Not only was the 18-year-old named young player of the tournament, but he has also been included in UEFA’s Team of the Tournament, the only member of the Spain squad to do so.

Pedri played all six of Spain’s games in the competition, only missing the final minute of the game with Switzerland.
He was Barça’s most used player last season, but the workload doesn’t seem to be getting to him, because the 76.1 km he covered was the most in the tournament behind just Jorginho and Philipps, who played one more game than him.
One of the player’s greatest assets is his passing ability, his 421/461 pass rate at Euro 2020 equating to an incredible 91.32 accuracy. Against Italy in the semi-final he almost hit total perfection with 65/67 (97%).
