England's Tribune reported on the 9th (Korea time) 'UEFA will compensate Barcelona for Pedri's injury'
Barcelona midfielder Pedri recently suffered a terrible injury in the Euro 2024 quarter-final match between Spain and Germany. Pedri, who started the game, was injured in the 8th minute of the first half due to Tony Cross' excessive tackle. There was also a scene of getting back up immediately after the tackle, but he had to leave the ground immediately, slumping again.
Spain's Royal Football Federation "Pedri was diagnosed with a Grade II medial sprain on his left knee. "I will be with my colleagues until the end of this Euro tournament..." he said, announcing that his return would take about six weeks.
Criticism poured in against Cross as well. Cross, who was decided to retire due to Germany's defeat in the game, wishes Pedri well for his tackle. I didn't mean to hurt Pedri. I wish you a speedy recovery and hope you do your best. You are a great player,' he apologized. Pedri immediately forgave Cross's behavior, saying he knew it was not intentional.

As expected, if he returns to Barcelona after six weeks and starts training, he will have time to recover his performance before the opening of the season, but if Pedri, who has been suffering from injury problems, leaves due to injury again, Barcelona will have no choice but to increase his fear of injury evil spirits once again. Pedri also missed 25 games due to three injuries in the 2023-2024 season.
Heartbroken Barcelona will receive financial compensation from UEFA for Pedri's injury as it occurred during the Euro tournament. However, considering his weekly salary and economic influence, it is too small.

However, it is not a satisfactory reward for Barcelona. If Pedri is injured again due to this injury after his return, he will not be compensated for this, and even if he receives 1435,500 euros (about 214 million won) every week due to the prolonged injury period, he will lose 180,000 euros (about 270 million won), Pedri's weekly salary. Moreover, losing key power itself is a fatal blow to Barcelona, the championship competitor.
One last tackle from Real Madrid's Legendary Cross once again saddened Barcelona.
