Piqué hooks up with Toni Freixa on Twitter

Gerard Piqué once again became a protagonist on social networks. This Thursday he got involved on Twitter with Toni Freixa. The former candidate for the presidency of Barcelona responded to a publication by journalist Alfredo Martínez, in which he stated that Dembélé does not deserve to demand more from Barcelona. Freixa agreed: “That’s how the players are. No surprise to me. To think that I would renew downwards to allow the registration of a recently signed player who plays in the same position, is a firecracker.” Immediately afterwards came the answer from Piqué.

“Don’t generalize with ‘that’s the way players are’. It’s as if I said ‘that’s how candidates are, they don’t pay their collaborators’ “, the Barcelona defender wrote to reply to Toni Freixa, who did not continue with the discussion.

Precisely, Piqué was one of the first Barcelona players who decided to lower their salary so that the club could sign and comply with the financial fair play. “FC Barcelona has been able to register Memphis, Eric Garcia and Rey Manaj in the Professional Football League. This fact has been possible thanks to the agreement reached with Gerard Piqué for the second Barcelona captain to significantly lower his salary“, Barcelona communicated at the time.
