Despite being immersed in the Kings and Queens League season, Gerard Piqué follows the situation of FC Barcelona very closely. The former Barça player, in a conversation on the Ibai Llanos Twitch channel, stated: “The partners deserve to know the truth, since you cannot sell smoke if there is no money to compete.”
The Bonanova player has criticized the strategy that the club is following, since he believes that the truth must be told about Barça’s economic situation. “If the reality of the club is that there is ‘not a penny’, it must be said. You cannot sell smoke and say that we are going to win the Champions League,” commented the Barça legend.
Likewise, the former Barça footballer has declared: “It makes no sense to talk about signing Mbappé or Haaland, if there is no money.” To soften the monetary situation of FC Barcelona, ??Piqué has clarified that the solution should be “betting two or three years with players from La Masia.” The Catalan also commented that Barça’s youth players “are very good people, with a lot of talent, and we can try to win the League with them.”
Furthermore, Gerard Piqué has explained his point of view on Gil Manzano’s decision to signal the end of the match just as Brahim was preparing to cross into the area. The former centre-back has pointed out that “the play was not called badly, but rather it was called late.” Likewise, the former Barcelona footballer clarified: “I understand that the Madrid fans get angry, but Gil Manzano should have blown the final whistle before the corner.”
Piqué, in addition, took the opportunity to launch a ‘little pull’ at the Extremaduran referee: “He threw me out at El Sadar, and I didn’t say anything, but apart from this, which in the end doesn’t matter to me, he has a history that I don’t understand.” , because he is an international referee, he would have to have a top level,” said the former soccer player.
