Manchester City, Arsenal and Bayern Munich have all expressed their interest in signing Barcelona midfielder Pedri, according to a report.

The 21-year-old is widely regarded as one of the brightest prospects in Europe and has already established himself as a star player for the Catalan giants since breaking into the first team in 2020.

Pedri has already made 120 appearances for Barca in all competitions, scoring 17 goals, although he has been restricted to just 11 outings for Xavi's side so far this season due to a muscle injury.

The Spain international was also hampered with injuries last season, albeit still featuring in 35 games, and Fichajes reports that Barcelona are concerned about the midfielder's recurring problems, triggering speculation about his future.

Premier League duo Man City and Arsenal, as well as Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich, are all reportedly 'attentive to this situation' and will consider the possibility of launching offers next summer.

Barcelona seemingly have no immediate interest in parting ways with Pedri, though, with the midfielder under contract at Camp Nou until the summer of 2026.

As well as winning the La Liga title and Supercopa de Espana with Barcelona last season, Pedri has also celebrated success in the Copa del Rey in 2020-21, but he is yet to win European silverware with the Catalan giants.

There have been no suggestions at this stage that Pedri would even consider an exit from Camp Nou, and it remains to be seen whether he would be interested in a future move abroad.

Both Man City and Arsenal strengthened their midfield last summer, with the former recruiting both Mateo Kovacic and Matheus Nunes, while the latter spent big to sign both Declan Rice and Kai Havertz.

While Man City could view Pedri as a potential long-term replacement for 32-year-old playmaker Kevin De Bruyne, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta may be tempted to bolster his squad with a new creative player to provide competition for the likes of Havertz and Martin Odegaard.

As for Bayern, their alleged interest in Pedri comes at a time when their rising star Jamal Musiala has been linked with a possible departure amid interest from the Premier League and Real Madrid.

Thomas Tuchel is believed to be prioritising the addition of a new defensive midfielder, though, with Fulham's Joao Palhinha still thought to be one of the club's top targets.
