Estanislau "Estanis" Pedrola Fortuny (born 24 August 2003) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a forward for Italian Serie B club Sampdoria.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Cambrils, Tarragona, Catalonia, Pedrola joined RCD Espanyol's youth setup in 2014, from local side CF Reus Deportiu.[2] Released in 2019,[3] he subsequently returned to Reus before joining FC Barcelona in June 2021, for the Juvenil A squad.[4][5]

Pedrola made his senior debut with the reserves on 21 November 2021, coming on as a late substitute for Ferran Jutglà in a 2–0 Primera División RFEF away loss against Albacete Balompié.[6] He scored his first senior goal on 12 December, netting the equalizer for the B's in a 3–1 home win over CD Alcoyano.

Pedrola made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 2 January 2022, replacing fellow youth graduate Ilias Akhomach in a 1–0 away success over RCD Mallorca.[7][8]

On 11 August 2023, Pedrola signed a four-year contract with Italian club Sampdoria. He will spend the 2023–24 season on loan, and then Sampdoria holds an obligation to purchase his rights on a permanent basis.[9]

Personal life

[edit]

Pedrola was named after his great-grandfather, also named Estanislau, who fought in World War II and died in a Nazi concentration camp.[10]
