The message from Pique after Godin's farewell

Godin has been in the Atletico Madrid defence for nine seasons. He arrived at 24 and will leave at 32 after not reaching an agreement with the Atletico board. 

Godin will have a number of options available to him because he has still got a way to go at the top level, but Atletico has been his home. 

He became one of the best central defenders in the world at the Calderon and the Wanda. He will leave the club at the end of the season after a tearful announcement and he has received many messages paying tribute to him. 

One of them is from Pique. The Barcelona defender wanted to recognise all the Uruguayan's work and he has wished all the best in the future: "Diego Godin is leaving Atletico. Enormous respect for a central defender who has marked an era. All the best in the future. You will be missed here in La Liga."
