Shakira Calls Husband Gerard Pique 'Best In The World' After Clasico Win

 

Pique's career has had its ups and downs, with reports of an off-field spat with former teammate Lionel Messi over his role in the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner's departure from Barcelona.

The World Cup-winning centre back and his colleagues, on the other hand, were back to their best on Sunday, as they defeated La Liga leaders Real in the 249th El Clasico.

Pique tweeted a statement after the game saying that Barcelona was 'back,' and now his wife has chimed in, dubbing the Spanish defender the 'greatest in the world.'

"Gerard won't allow me speak these things openly," she wrote on the highly visible social media platform Instagram.
