Barcelona will look to delay the sale of Pedro to Manchester United until after their involvement in next month’s UEFA Super Cup, according to Marca.
It looks increasingly likely that the Spain forward will move to United,
especially as the Premier League side are about to cash in on Argentina winger
Angel Di Maria. Marca reports that United and Barca have all but agreed a fee, with Pedro
likely to move for between €30m and €32m.
With the start of the Premier League season and their involvement in Champions
League qualifiers on the horizon, United want to finalise the deal as soon as
possible, but Barca want to retain his services until after they have taken on
fellow La Liga outfit Sevilla in the UEFA Cup in Tblisi on August 11.
Barca are mindful that Lionel Messi and Neymar may not be in peak physical condition by the time they face Sevilla and, as such, they want Pedro to be available for the European fixture.
