Pedro plays down Chelsea link

Barcelona forward Pedro played down links to Chelsea but confirmed his buyout clause had plummeted.

The 27-year-old could be set for a move away from the European champions as he searches for more game time.

And his buyout clause has dropped drastically, reportedly from €150million to €30m.

"It's true that we decided to lower my buyout clause and that there are offers," Pedro said.

"I'm in a difficult situation at Barcelona, but I don't want to reveal anything.

"All I'm interested in is getting down to work on Wednesday with my team-mates and then we'll see."

"I haven't spoken to [Jose] Mourinho, but I don't want to say anything else because it would be disrespectful to my club, Barcelona," he said.
