Puyol opens up on moment he realized it’s time to leave Barca, possibly aims dig at Pique

“There was a moment when I realised that I could no longer compete. The coach wanted to bring me on, but I recommended that he chose other teammates who were better”.

“I would have liked to have stayed at Barca without being paid, but my body wouldn’t allow me to do so”, Barcelona legend Carles Puyol said, as per Miguel Blazquez.

It is very likely that the former Barсa defender was aiming dig at Gerard Pique, who refuses to leave the club despite losing his place in the starting eleven and his blatantly poor performances.

While Pique still has two years left on his contract, rumours of the player’s contract being terminated are rife.
