While focused on the pitch, Pedro admits to playing unofficial recruiter, revealing Messi, David de Gea and Jordi Alba as players he tried bringing to Lazio. "I always tried," Pedro said when asked whether he had ever come close to convincing a former team-mate to join. "Even with Messi, obviously it was not easy (laughs). Then Jordi Alba and De Gea when they were free agents. I also remember speaking about Bartra with Sarri. And David Luiz. I would have loved to let them experience the passion of our fans."
