José Boto reveals reason for Pedro's improvement at Flamengo | OneFootball

José Boto mentioned the internal work carried out by coach Leonardo Jardim

Leonardo Jardim’s Flamengo has been getting positive results and playing solidly in recent matches, with Pedro standing out. Amid this, José Boto, the club’s football director, pointed to the striker’s growth under the Portuguese coach’s style.

— And the fact that we brought in a coach who adapts more than he imposes a playing model certainly had a very positive influence on Pedro, who, for certain playing models, has some limitations — José Boto began.

“But what a coach also has to do is know how to make the most of the players’ good qualities. And that is what Leonardo Jardim is doing with Pedro”, concluded Flamengo’s football director in an interview with FlamengoTV.

WHAT IS PEDRO’S SITUATION AT FLAMENGO?

Since Filipe Luís’ departure, Pedro has played in nine matches for Flamengo under Leonardo Jardim. The center forward has scored six times. In addition, he has provided one assist during that period. Thus, he has seven direct goal contributions in total.

WHEN DOES FLAMENGO PLAY?
