Former Manchester United centre-back Gerard Pique has announced his plans to retire from professional football, confirming that his last game will be this coming Saturday.
The Barcelona defender, who spent four years at Old Trafford between 2004 and 2008, has confirmed that he will hang up his boots for the final time following the La Liga giants' clash with Almeria at the Camp Nou. Pique made the announcement in an emotional social media video on Thursday evening.
Pique, who is 35, has been at Barcelona since leaving United back in 2008, racking up a total of 615 appearances, scoring 53 goals in the process. He has also won 30 major honours during his time at the club, including three Champions League titles.
