Paris Saint-Germain have finalized the signing of Pedro “Dero” Fernandez from Barcelona, with new details from Marca suggesting the deal was completed through thorough diplomacy rather than active negotiations.
It is said that the transfer was not a sudden surprise attack but was carried out with the utmost respect.

One of the most important factors in the move is the strong institutional relationship between Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain.
PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi is determined not to engage in any kind of conflict with Laporta.
Therefore, PSG did not take any action until the situation was completely clear. It wasn’t until DeRoro personally informed Barcelona of his intention to leave that PSG made their move.
How did this move happen?
Until that moment, there had been no pressure from Paris. Barcelona are already dealing with the disappointment of losing a highly rated midfielder, while PSG are careful not to make the situation worse.

At that time, PSG was fully capable of calm and direct negotiations with Barcelona.
Both Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund have shown strong interest in DeRoro. However, PSG managed to solve the problem.
A combination of a clear sporting plan, respectful dialogue with Barcelona and player preferences ultimately tipped the scales in PSG’s favour.
From PSG’s perspective, the deal is certainly worth more than the reported €8.5 million.

That’s because PSG head coach Luis Enrique and sporting consultant Luis Campos believe Drogone is a perfect fit for the club’s new image.
Player preferences, the club’s strong sporting program and their ideal relationship with Barcelona tip the balance in favor of PSG
