“You Swapped Rolex For Casio”: Pop Star Shakira Takes Dig At Ex-Partner Gerard Pique | Football News

[ad_1] Legendary Barcelona footballer Gerard Pique and pop star Shakira parted ways in June last year after being together for 11 years. While there remain a number of rumours over the decision behind their split, in her new song, Shakira has seemingly taken a thinly-veiled dig at the retired defender as well as his new girlfriend, as per multiple foreign publications. In her song, Shakira made it all but clear that she is referring to the 23-year-old girlfriend of Pique as rumours remain those the two had started dating before the footballer and the singer-cum-songwriter had decided to go call it quits.“I'm worth two 22's. You traded a Ferrari for a Twingo.

[ad_1] Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez says he understands Gerard Pique's decision to retire halfway through the season, because the 35-year-old defender doesn't feel as "important or useful" to the team as before. Pique announced he would play his final match at Camp Nou on Saturday against Almeria, while he will also be available for the club's last game before the World Cup at Osasuna on Tuesday.
