Piqué Reflects on Barcelona’s Return to Champions League Quarterfinals

Gerard Pique offers an analysis of Barcelona’s Champions League progression.

Retired from football and focusing on his businesses, Gerard Piqué remains an avid spectator of the sport, particularly following his own King’s League and Champions League, with a keen eye on his beloved Barcelona. Having achieved tremendous success in the blue and garnet jersey, he now offers insights from the sidelines, providing analysis to ‘SkySport’ Italia on Barcelona’s round of 16 second-leg match against Napoli and the team’s overall performance: “I think it was a great game, and Barcelona deserved to advance. They are in the quarterfinals again, something they hadn’t achieved in several years.” Looking ahead to the remainder of the competition, the Catalan defender expressed optimism: “Now let’s see, there are five games left to lift the trophy. Hopefully, Barcelona will be champions, although it will be challenging with all the top teams from Europe in the quarterfinals. But the match against Napoli left positive feelings.”
