Chelsea's Pedro discusses Premier League struggles and future Spain move
CHELSEA winger Pedro admits he struggled to adapt to the Premier League in his first season in England - but he won't quit on the club.
Pedro scored just eight goals for Chelsea last season
Pedro has been linked with a move back to Barcelona, the club he left to join Chelsea in a £21.8million deal last August.
The Spain international, who played in his country's failed Euro 2016 campaign, is expected back at Chelsea soon after taking an extended break at home in Tenerife following the tournament.
And he insists he will impress next season after a mixed first campaign in the English' top flight.
Pedro, 28, snubbed a chance to join Manchester United to link up with former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho at Stamford Bridge last summer.
The Barca academy product had requested to leave his boyhood club after struggling to get game time at the Nou Camp.
Incoming Blues boss Antonio Conte is set to assess his squad before making decisions on player sales, although Pedro's future is not thought to be in danger.
Pedro - Spotlight on
However, the 56-cap Spain star admitted he would like to play for childhood club CD Tenerife one day.
"It’s a long-term possibility that could happen," he conceded.
"Above all for my relatives who I do not get to see and the people who support me from here."
