Former FC Barcelona and Spain defender Gerard Pique has announced his return to football as a coach.
The Catalan, who announced his retirement from professional football in November 2022, confirmed on social media that he would return to football in 2024 and would be open to taking up a coaching role. In his post on X, Piqué wrote: “ It’s a new year and after much thought, I have decided to return to football. I miss him a lot. This time it won’t be as a player. It will be as a coach. I will give you more details at the end of the week. »
The former Spain international remained associated with the sport even after his retirement. In 2018, he bought the Spanish club FC Andorra, through his company Kosmos Holding, while he was still a player at FC Barcelona. Under his leadership, the team enjoyed a meteoric rise from the fifth to the second division. The ex-FC Barcelona captain didn’t reveal much about the rest of his career, but he promised to give more details by the end of the week.
