The Barcelona defender has never been one to hold his tongue and what he said has caused a stir
Gerard Pique could be in trouble. His words at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan can be taken as a jab at the referees. “It will be difficult to win the league … it will be hard for Madrid to drop points,” is what he said after the 0-0 draw at Sevilla on Friday.
Some could take that as a dig after Madrid were lucky not to concede against Valencia after VAR ruled Rodrigo’s goal offside. They went on to win.
If Pique is denounced then the competition committee could punish him. However the length of time it takes to work that out could see him miss the start of the 2020-2021 campaign.
