Pedro appears to remain at in Barcelona’s plans as he started Friday’s Spanish Super Cup first leg.
The forward came off the bench to net the winner in Tuesday night’s UEFA Super Cup win over Sevilla in Tbilisi - and that was enough to earn him a starting berth as Barca slumped to a shock 4-0 defeat.
He has now started alongside Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez as Barca look to win yet another trophy under Luis Enrique in a quite remarkable 2015.
Manchester United - and now Manchester City - remain heavily linked with Pedro’s signature this summer.
And he may become available when Neymar returns from illness over the next week.
