This Monday, it was revealed that Xavi Hernandez had told Gerard Pique that he did not count on him as a starter for next season. As a result of this situation, some media outlets put the defender's Barcelona future in doubt.
However, in the last few hours, the Catalan club surprised everyone and published on social media a video in which you can see Pique doing recovering work at the Joan Gamper training complex.
The Catalan club's attitude makes it clear that the player still has a good chance of continuing in the squad led by Xavi Hernandez even if he has a secondary role from now until the end of his contract in the middle of 2024.
Despite the fact he is on holiday, the 35 year-old defender has been going to the training complex on his own for weeks to try and recover from the fitness troubles he had last season.
Pique's intention to be in good physical shape and show Xavi that he can be useful so he can earn himself a place in the starting XI for next season.
