Pedro could play anywhere, says Bayern's Guardiola

Pep Guardiola has weighed up the possible departure of Pedro from Barcelona, declaring that "Pedro has played loads of game with Barça. Due to this, he can play anywhere. I want the best for him, whether he stays or goes," he explained.

The Bayern Munich coach shared a press conference together with Real Madrid coach Rafa Benitez, Milan boss Mihajlovic and Tottenham coach Pochettino, who he will play against during the coming days at the Audi Cup. "It is a big tournament and an even better test. We are going up against several of the best teams in Europe," Guardiola claimed.

The press conference contained an odd scene. According to journalist Guillermo Valverde (@willy_sagnol), Pep was asked about the criticism from Matthaus and Effenberg. Before the Spanish coach could respond, the Bayern press officer defended him by saying "neither Matthaus nor Effenberg have seen one of Guardiola's training sessions."

Pep's Bayern lost the German Super Cup against Wolfsburg on Saturday, on penalties, with the defeat provoking criticism from the German press.
