Pedro 'hopes' to stay at Barcelona

Spanish attacker Pedro has revealed that he wants to stay with Barcelona this summer.

The 26-year-old scored 19 times for the Catalan outfit last season, but has been linked with a move away from the Camp Nou in recent weeks.

The forward, however, has said that he wants to remain with the Spanish side.

"I don't know what will happen," he told Gillette.

"Hopefully I'll remain at Barcelona, of course, it's the club I've always wanted to play for. Now I want to stay focused on the World Cup, which is a very important event."

Pedro made his first-team Barca debut in 2008.
