Social Zone: Pedri's release clause can save Barcelona, but they need help from Newcastle United
Pedri, Barcelona, Camp Nou
Cash-strapped Barcelona have set an astronomical clause in Pedri's contract, Bayer Leverkusen are the kings of Twitter, and red flags flood our timeline in today's Social Zone.
SOCCER: Barcelona's friendly against third-tier Spanish side Cornella ended up in a draw. The sad reality is Ronald Koeman is probably just happy they didn't lose.

SOCCER: In better news for Barca, Pedri has signed a new contract with a release clause of $1billion. It sounds like they could do with it if we're honest - any takers? Newcastle?

SOCCER: Elsewhere, Argentinian soccer saw a furry pitch invader enter play. Surely that's got to be a yellow for time wasting ref?
