The new Iniesta set to join PSG

A midfielder trained at FC Barcelona, Dro Fernandez is preparing to join Paris Saint-Germain with a simple idea: to play. According to Jaume Marcet of the newspaper Sport , as reported by Le Parisien , the player chose Paris to find a clearer context for his development, where waiting had eventually become a burden. A transfer that says a lot about the evolution of PSG and its young players.

“Dro and Pedri have the same profile. A hardworking midfielder, technically skilled, who covers a lot of ground and possesses exceptional passing ability. However, Dro was disappointed not to have been given his chance when Pedri was sidelined with an injury a few weeks ago.

That was the trigger for his departure. He’s afraid of nothing, even though he’s not a shouter and is very discreet off the pitch. He’s an old-school hard worker. He’s not going to dribble past four players before firing a shot into the top corner. But he also reminds me of Andrés Iniesta. He really is the same type of player.”

Dro Fernandez’s profile isn’t defined by promises, but by facts. A hardworking midfielder, technically reliable, capable of covering large areas and ensuring clean distribution, the Spaniard belongs to a category of players whose usefulness comes before the spectacular. His departure is explained less by an escape than by a decision: the decision to stop waiting.

Disappointed not to have been used when his direct competition was absent, Dro decided it was time to take a step forward. By choosing Paris, he is not seeking status or artificial exposure, but an environment where progress happens on the pitch. This choice resonates with a not-so-distant era when being young at PSG was an obstacle course. Today, the club offers a clearer environment, where the ambition to play can finally meet a real opportunity.
