First it was Leo Messi, who this summer sent a burofax to the club announcing his unilateral decision to leave the club and later made an interview in which he railed against Bartomeu, then a letter signed by the captains and addressed to the Blaugrana president in which they denounced as “embarrassing” the attitude of the club in the way of managing the salary reduction and now it has been Gerard Piqué himself, in an interview with ‘La Vanguardia’, the one in charge of capturing the existing schism between the dressing room and the board, with some incendiary statements where he does not leave a puppet with a head, pointing out the maximum Blaugrana leader without shame.
These statements have been received with satisfaction by the wardrobe. In fact, many already knew the content before it was published, since it was Gerard himself who agreed with some of the heavyweights what he was going to say.
Piqué was congratulated by his teammates before starting the morning session. And is whatand the center-back acted as spokesman for a dressing room that is beginning to be very burned before so much interference and intoxication by the club. Later, in the morning session, the captain clothed himself with his best friends on the field, including Sergio Busquets and Sergi Roberto, the other two captains, who sign each and every one of Piqué's words.
Apart from Piqué, the other focus of attention in the morning session was Jordi Alba, who returned after having been away for three weeks off the pitch due to an injury to the hamstring in his right leg. The left back could be the great novelty in the list of summoned for the Classical. On Thursday he already made part of the session with the group – he did not participate in the final game – and this Friday he is scheduled to complete all the training. In fact, Ronald Koeman himself approached him before starting the warm-up exercises to give him a series of instructions. It seems obvious that if there is no last minute setback, You will receive the discharge to enter the call. More complicated it seems that it comes out in the starting eleven, especially considering that he will have completed only one training session with the group and that the Juventus Champions League match is just around the corner.
