Pedri grew up idolizing Andres Iniesta, and now he's had the opportunity to shake the veteran's hand as the Barcelona legend paid a visit to Spain's camp in Qatar on Thursday.

The 19-year-old had a chat with Iniesta and also took some pictures with him. Interestingly, Barca's vice-captain Jordi Alba was behind the camera.
