Recently, former Barcelona director Planes was interviewed and revealed that Frick wanted to sign Pedri as early as 2020.
He said: "After Lisbon lost 2-8 to Bayern, I received a call from Pedri's agent because Bayern, who is coached by Frick, wanted to sign Pedri."
Pedri joined Barcelona for 23 million euros in the 2019/20 season, but he was still playing for Las Palmas for a year, making 36 appearances in the Spanish Second Division, contributing 4 goals and 7 assists.
