Pedro says he owes his Barcelona career to former coach Pep Guardiola.
Upon learning Guardiola would be leaving the club in 2013, Pedro admits his future was in question.
"We had a long conversation before he left the club and I thanked him," he told the Daily Mail.
"When a coach trusts you enough to take you out of the youth side and put you into the first team of one of the best sides in the world, it's not an easy decision.
"Perhaps without Guardiola's support I would have lost heart and looked for a solution away from the club."
