Pastore raves about his successor at PSG

Javier Pastore, the former Argentine attacking midfielder (29 caps) who notably played for Paris Saint-Germain (2011–2018), ended his playing career in 2023 and recently began a career as an agent. On the sidelines of an event at the Parc des Princes, he was invited by Top Mercato to give his opinion on Dro Fernandez, the 18-year-old midfielder who left FC Barcelona to sign for PSG this winter and took the number 27 shirt, which the Flaco wore in Paris and which had been left aside since his departure.

Pastore: “I believe Dro has talent to spare.”

“He has class; I really enjoy watching this boy play. He is still very young. His time will come in Paris, I’m sure of it. He has the profile to play for this PSG side. He has already played and shown quite a lot of positive things. I’m very happy that a player like him has inherited the number 27, which was mine and which people associate with beautiful football and talent. I believe Dro has talent to spare. I’m very happy that he is wearing my number, and I’m sure he will enjoy a lot of success here in Paris for many years.”

Dro will appreciate such words from a player who holds an important place in PSG’s history. All the more so with that famous shared number 27, which the Spaniard can wear with a footballing elegance reminiscent of Pastore. Their game is clearly not based on physical power, but rather on technical ease and vision. Even if the former Barça player will probably need to improve a little in duels from an athletic standpoint.

It remains obvious that his potential is huge. Since arriving this winter, the midfielder has already shown some fine qualities and managed to adapt quickly to the style of play. Of course, he still needs to keep working in order to fully establish himself and make a lasting impact at PSG. Pastore believes in him, and we are not going to disagree.
