Pique Teases Casillas While Sporting Juventus Jersey
During the Kings League Final in Turin, former Barcelona defender Gerard Pique took a playful jab at Real Madrid legend Iker Casillas. The event, which took place at the Allianz Stadium, saw Pique donning a classic Juventus shirt.
This lighthearted interaction followed Barcelona’s impressive 5-2 victory over Real Madrid in the Spanish Supercup Final. Both Pique and Casillas were present at the Kings League Final, where the ex-Barcelona star seized the opportunity to tease his former rival.
In a moment captured on video, Pique flashed the ‘Manita’ gesture (symbolizing five goals) towards Casillas, who was engrossed in a phone call at the time. This playful exchange between the two Spanish football icons was later shared on the Kings League’s official social media channel.
The incident highlights the ongoing friendly rivalry between these retired players, who were once fierce competitors on the field but now share a more relaxed relationship off the pitch. Pique’s choice to wear a Juventus shirt added an extra layer of intrigue to the encounter, given the historical connections between Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Juventus in European football.
