Barcelona coach Luis Enrique admitted that he has under-played reported Premier League target Pedro after his dazzling cameo in Saturday's 2-0 win over Real Sociedad.
The 27-year-old came off the bench to seal the Catalans' win with a "tremendous" overhead kick in the closing minutes at the Camp Nou.
Pedro is arguably the primary victim of the 112-goal trident of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar- who opened the scoring - having started just 13 Liga games all season.
Consequently, speculation is rife that Chelsea and Arsenal will lodge £24m bids for him in the summer, and Enrique has acknowledged that he owes the Spaniard more minutes.
"About Pedro I can only say marvellous things. He is a top-class player. He's playing less than he deserves this year," he told reporters.
"He always delivers, he's a complete professional and a guarantee, a pleasure to have here. His goal was tremendous, the action of a player on a different level."
Pedro's contract at Barcelona expires in 2016.
