Our first cover star for issue 23 is Barcelona’s Pedri, who opens up about the impact of Hansi Flick, learning from Barça’s past masters and putting the pain of injury behind him to take his game to another level. Our second cover features Khvicha Kvaratskhelia discussing how he’s relishing the here and now at Paris Saint-Germain, while our third cover star, Arsenal captain Martin Ødegaard, tells us about his journey from a small town in Norway to the big time in north London.

Elsewhere, we spend time with new Feyenoord coach Robin Van Persie, chat to Arsenal Women’s Lotte Wubben-Moy about her creative side, and hear from Inter’s Hakan Çalhanoğlu about his new role. Off the pitch, we get to know multi-award-winning, Arsenal-loving band Ezra Collective, meet the Inter fans taking over a London pub, and take a trip to sample the culinary delights of Lille.
