Barcelona star leads 5 Real Madrid players as La Liga’s best in passing stat this season | OneFootball

A member of the midfield ranks at Barcelona stands out as the very best in La Liga when it comes to final third passes this season.

That’s according to statisticians Squawka, who point towards Pedri as the player in question.

Spanish international Pedri is for his part in the midst of nothing short of a spectacular opening to the campaign to date.

Finally seeing his brilliance recognised on a global scale, the 22-year-old has controlled matters in Barcelona’s engine room with elegance, poise and decisiveness.

In turn, it should not come as a great surprise to hear of Pedri dominating in one category in Spain’s top-flight thus far in 2025/26.

As revealed by Squawka, the former Las Palmas talent has completed, by some way, the most final third passes in La Liga (267).

The next five names on the list come by way of Barca’s arch rivals Real Madrid, through Álvaro Carreras, Kylian Mbappé, Arda Güler, Federico Valverde and Vinícius Jr.
