PIQUÉ ENJOYING LIFE

Barcelona defender Gerrard Pique has said that he is enjoying life at the Catalan club. Piqué is the rare central defender who has the chance to become a breakout global sports star. He’s good at what he does. He wins. He even scores a few goals. And away from the field he’s a handsome guy who gives interesting interviews in Spanish, Catalan and, yes, English, as I found out when we spoke for half an hour on Tuesday.

PIQUE DENIES RIFT

Gerard pique has denied that there is a rift between him and Daniel Alves. The duo appeared to become involved in a heated exchange which continued for a spell, with the Brazilian in particular unhappy with the Spanish international, and he appeared to let him know his opinion.

Addressing the media afterwards, the full-back said that the pair had already resolved their differences and that the incident had been forgotten.

He commented: “Pique and I have already solved it, our pulses were running too high, but in the end nothing happened.
