Is Gerard Piqué returning to professional football? That question was just asked by the protagonist himself through social networks. “I have decided to return to football,” posted the former Barcelona center back. The center-back announced his goodbye just over a year ago, in November 2022, just before the World Cup in Qatar took place. What he has clarified is that he will not dress short. «It’s a new year and after thinking carefully about it I have decided to return to football. I miss him a lot. This time it won’t be as a player. He will be as a coach. I will share more details at the end of the week », he announced.

Piqué closed his time at Barça after fifteen consecutive seasons as a fundamental pillar in the center of defense. A La Masía youth player, he previously played for Manchester United and Zaragoza. During his time as a Barça player, he won three Champions Leagues, eight leagues, seven Copas del Rey, six Spanish Super Cups, three European Super Cups and three Club World Cups. Already with the national team, he was key in achieving the World Cup in South Africa and the European Championship in Poland and Ukraine.
With his stage in professional football closed, the former footballer decided to devote himself to the organization of the Kings League, an amateur competition with a significant following through Twitch and which has included the participation of the streamer Ibai Llanos and the former striker Sergio Agüero , among others. He also once took charge of the organization of the Davis Cup, a tournament that he would abandon after leaving a million-dollar hole. Now it seems that he has other plans for his future.
