Bartomeu pulls Piqué's ears: “He didn't tell the truth”

Glancingly, but with less fear than in other times when the players were untouchable and the president maintained a much more tame attitude, Josep Maria Bartomeu pulled Piqué by the ears.

The central awarded a interview to The vanguard three days after he was expelled for innocent against Ferencvaros and one day before the Classic in which the player pulverized the president and said, among other things, not understanding how Barça could have spent money from its box to hire a company that eroded the figure of club legends in social networks like Xavi or current stars like Messi or Piqué himself: “We love him (Piqué), but It is not true that the club, as he said, spent money to criticize players on social media. An audit confirms this. And I don't say it, the audit says it. I am very happy that he has renewed and adapted his salary to the income of the club. And, as I have said in the case of Messi, I am not going to argue with the players in public. They have my doors open and sometimes I go to their houses. “
