Gerard Piqué continues to give people something to talk about and in the transmission of the Kings League program through Twitch, prior to matchday 6 of the tournament, the possibility of arriving at the Camp Nou by helicopter and parachuting appeared.
The 35-year-old Catalan specified that it is a brand which he approached to try to close an advertising agreement. However, Piqué did not want to reveal the names of those involved. “There is a brand that has offered me to arrive at the Camp Nou by parachute and put the ball in the center of the field,” he said after clarifying that the agreement is very close to closing.
The former player continued to refer to the matter and described that the sports venue with a capacity for more than 80,000 people, has a ‘Spider Cam’ that has a few cables around it, something that could increase the risk in Piqué’s acrobatics.
“The risk is that I can get caught in the cables. It can be a bit of a flop if I get hung up on it,” she stated.
It is necessary to remember that a few weeks ago, the former defender met with the president of FC Barcelona, Joan Laporta and days later they announced in a live stream on Twitch the agreement for the final phases of the Kings League to be played at the Spotify Camp Nou.
However, the matches will not be played in the main stadium, but in a special area that will be set aside for this purpose and will have the measurements of the pitches where the competition has been held in a seven-a-side soccer format. This measure will bring great economic gains, as it recently revealed that more than 30,000 tickets were sold.
Streamers, players and former soccer players such as Iker Casillas or Sergio ‘Kun’ Agüero and content creators of the caliber of Thegrefg, DjMariio, and even the Mexican Rivers participate in this project. Since last January 1, six games are played every Sunday. The tournament will last 11 days and would end in the month of March, approximately.
