Gerard Pique has revealed how he was pulled over for drink driving while a Manchester United player but he managed to trick his way past the blood test.
The central defender gave the interview to YouTuber Jordi Wild on The Wild Project, making the extraordinary revelation of how he used an urban myth to escape further punishment. Pique spent four years at Manchester United before joining Barcelona, aged 21.
He explained how this incident took place when he was a 20-year-old and used it as an ‘example’ of the sort of lifestyle he had at the time. He was speaking of how going out partying has given him so many anecdotes throughout his career, although this revelation is likely to prove particularly eye-raising.
