The former Barça player reviewed the evolution of the Kings League in an interview for the MARCA newspaper
“Everything is going too well, but we have to try to establish the competition,” he said.
The ex head office of the FC Barcelona, Gerard Piquéreviewed the Kings League in an interview for the MARCA newspaper: “My head explodes thinking that the Camp Nou can be filled this Sunday”.
The man from Bonanova, who has hung up his boots this season, praised the work of all those involved in making the competition work so well: “The first day we thought that this was working very well, but that it did not have to be the flower of a day and we have to establish it. Everything is going too well, but we have to try to establish the competition without having something during the week and from there we did nothing”.
The youth squad pointed out what the real objective of the Kings League is: “We try that within the 16 hours that people don’t sleep, we are part of their entertainment like F1, football, Netflix, HBO or Instagram”. “People in the end have a reduced time during the day and we want a site for X minutes on a specific day,” she stressed.
In relation to the ‘Negreira case’the Catalan spoke at length: “At no time were the players aware, but since we don’t have many other things that happen in a club. The work now belongs to Laporta, who at some point is going to explain exactly what it is. I am very convinced that at no time has Barça bought the referees. But you do have to understand the reason for those bills.”
“I refer to the facts. It is clear that sometimes they have favored us, but they have also harmed us on other occasions. It is something that happens in football. I remember the League that we lost against Atlético de Madrid at home. We tied 1-1 and we needed to win. They canceled a goal that was legal. It just doesn’t make any sense. You just have to explain it well and that’s it,” he concluded.
