Barcelona have always been renowned for their exceptional talent in midfield, and this season, one player stands out among the rest.
Pedri, a key figure in the Catalan side, leads La Liga in dribble success rate, making him an integral part of Barcelona’s campaign so far.
The Spanish international has been a pivotal player for the team, showcasing his abilities in a remarkable fashion.
Across all competitions, Pedri has made 25 appearances this season, contributing with four goals and three assists. These numbers underline his importance, but what truly sets him apart is his efficiency on the ball.
Pedri boasts a league-best dribble success rate of 66.7%, among players who have attempted at least 25 dribbles.
This statistic highlights not only his technical skill but also his ability to consistently outmanoeuvre opponents in critical situations.
Pedri’s performances have been even more impressive considering his previous struggles with fitness.
Now at 22 years old, he appears to have overcome those challenges, rediscovering the form that makes him one of the best midfielders in the game.

However, Barcelona’s dribbling dominance does not stop with Pedri. The team also benefits from the brilliance of Lamine Yamal.
Despite being just 17 years old and missing several matches due to injury, Yamal leads La Liga in completed dribbles this season with 51.
His closest rival, Dodi Lukebakio, has 46, while Vinicius Jr. sits in third with 39. This young talent’s impact is undeniable, as he consistently outshines more experienced players in this department.
Yamal’s contributions extend beyond dribbling. He also leads the league in assists, with an impressive total of nine, further showcasing his influence on Barcelona’s attacking play.
His ability to deliver decisive moments has been crucial, even with limited game time. Barcelona’s season, although a bit troubling, has been defined by these such standout performances, with both Pedri and Yamal playing vital roles in their pursuit of success.
