Gerard Piqué was this Friday in the presentation of his new agreement with the fantasy football game “Sorare”. The central defender of FC Barcelona, who besides being a footballer is already a businessman, will be an investor and advisor of this company with which he intends to conquer the fantasy games market. During the act, The man from Barcelona spoke today about two recurring themes in Barcelona.
The first topic he discussed was the tie with Paris Saint-Germain, who will be Barça’s rival in the knockout stages of the Champions League. Piqué made it clear that it would be an extremely complicated transition, but he did not hesitate to be optimistic. “The equality with PSG will be very tough, I know Neymar well. But it will be in two months and things can happen. The important thing is that it will be a great show for the spectator, “he said.
So far, PSG seems to be the favorite to go to the quarterfinals. Neymar has a wonderful season and Kylian Mbappé is also sweet, so with that pair, perhaps the best in the world, the Parisians aspire to all the titles. However, in defense, those of Thomas Tuchel make water and this, added to the quality of Leo Messi, Antoine Griezmann and the rest of the culé team, makes the tie open.
It is clear that Barça will have a better chance of defeating the French if Piqué recovers in the round of 16 from the sprain of the internal lateral ligament and the partial injury of the anterior cruciate ligament in the knee. The defender is working on his recovery at the moment, though his presence in those accidents is now very unknown, as it is a delicate injury and you can’t risk it.
The player explained how he is now and admitted that he is getting better and better, although he did not dare to give any deadline for his return, so he left his participation in the Champions League in the air. “I am just fine we have to wait for the next steps to know if the knee is stable or not. For now, I feel very well, strong and I hope to return soon, “he said.
He praised Ronald Araújo and Mingueza
Finally, Piqué praised the two power plants that shine in his absence. Ronald Araújo and Óscar Mingueza give a great performance, and “3” joked using the game he now sponsors to appreciate them both. “There are two players that interest me in the game, because they are players who have a wonderful future“, He concluded, clarifying what he thinks about the two.
