A Farewell from a Leader

After four seasons wearing the Lazio shirt, Pedro Rodríguez, a product of FC Barcelona’s academy, has confirmed that this will be his final year with the Italian club.

The 38-year-old Spanish forward made the announcement following Thursday’s goalless draw against Pisa, making it clear he wants to help the team finish in European positions before he departs.

“Without a doubt, this will be my last year at Lazio. But I want to leave this team where it deserves to be — in Europe,” said Pedro after the match.

With those words, the Tenerife-born winger closes a chapter defined by leadership, professionalism, and decisive goals — while keeping fans guessing about his next move.

No Clues About His Future

Pedro avoided revealing whether this marks his retirement or a move elsewhere. For now, his focus remains on helping Lazio finish the season strongly.

Maurizio Sarri’s side currently sit 11th in Serie A with 12 points, just three away from the European qualification spots.

In four seasons with the Roman club, Pedro has scored 34 goals and provided 16 assists, becoming a vital figure within the team.

A Career Full of Glory

Before arriving in Italy, Pedro shone for Chelsea, winning the Premier League and earning the admiration of the ‘Blues’ faithful. Yet his name will forever be tied to Barcelona, where he formed part of the legendary squad that conquered everything alongside Messi, Xavi, and Iniesta.

Now, at 38, Pedro faces what could be the closing act of a remarkable career. Whether or not he decides to retire, his legacy is already written in golden letters.

Time will tell if this farewell to Lazio is truly the final chapter of his story in football.
