Spanish footballer Gerard Piqué, who defends the colors of the famous Barcelona, went out on the market with his skin. To prevent speculation about his salary, he posted on Twitter the amount he had received from the club on the last day of the past calendar year. According to him, it should be half a year. The famous defender thus wanted to prove that his income was lower than some journalists think.
Fifty-seven million crowns. The quarterback Gerard Piqué will find out in Barcelona in half a year. At least according to a post that a famous football player posted on his twitter. He reacted to the speculations of journalist Lluis Canut.
He criticized not only Piqué, but also Sergio Busquets and Jordi Albu. According to him, the three stars have much higher incomes than the ones reported. The journalist made his assumptions for TV3. Barcelona officials immediately denied the allegations. They reported that the Catalan team had not told anyone about salaries and did not know of any leaks of this sensitive information.
In addition, the amounts that Canut defended were described as erroneous and the journalist’s behavior unprofessional and inappropriate. In order to put everything into perspective, the former Spanish representative himself added a screen from his account statement to social networks.
Characters like this charging for public television to defend their friends. Here are 50% of my payroll earned on December 30th. Respect yourself a little. https://t.co/luHsMMqJD8 pic.twitter.com/l4IAtqvexU

As of December 30, he received two and a half million euros, ie almost 57 million crowns. “People like Canut are just abusing space on public television to defend their acquaintances. Here you have 50 percent of my base salary as of December 30. Have some respect for yourself.” Piqué wrote in the post.
Canut spoke of a much higher amount – twenty-eight million euros, which is over six hundred million crowns. The really big bubble burst very quickly.
