The Barcelona board has been exploring the possibility of bringing back the legendary Argentine. Club Vice-president, Rafa Yuste has also assured fans of bringing Messi back and has told of being in talks. Amidst all this, Pique has come forward with a statement filled with major concern.

“I know Rafa Yuste and how he is. He’s a very good person and he will always tell you what you want to hear,” Pique said. “He’s a great person, and he is going to choose the right words to say what you like to hear”.

He believes that Barcelona should worry more about the financial crisis the Catalans are already going through. It was due to the financial woes that Messi had to leave Barcelona in 2021 in the first place. “Obviously for all the ‘cules’ it would be incredible if Leo came back, but there comes a point where forcing situations too much, can be counterproductive,” he concluded.

While Lionel Messi has been making waves in the soccer world, Gerard Pique has also been making headlines in the soccer world, but for a completely different reason. This is due to the drama surrounding his controversial breakup with ex-Shakra and everything that happened after that.

The main highlight of the drama was the diss tracks Shakira released toward Pique. The tracks saw a surprise show of solidarity from Lionel Messi’s wife, Antonella Roccuzzo. She commented with some fire emojis in the comments section of Shakira’s Instagram post after she showed a glimpse of her first diss track, ” Bzrp Music Session #53″.
