Mystery La Liga star dons Mexican WRESTLING disguise to play in Gerard Pique's Kings League and defy club

A mystery La Liga player went incognito in order to play in Gerard Pique’s Kings League.

The Barcelona legend has set up the new seven-a-side format in Spain. Team presidents include former Spain teammate Iker Casillas and Manchester City record goalscorer Sergio Aguero. Pique announced his retirement from the professional game in November after leaving the Camp Nou and has been promoting his new venture.

And he teased the involvement of an unknown La Liga star, who was deep undercover after not being given permission by his club to take part. But he did so anyway, sporting a Mexican wrestling mask and black base layer with long sleeves, suggesting that he could be identified by arm tattoos. The masked man was filmed arriving at the venue for the game between XBUYERS and Kunisports. Wearing the number 69 on his back below the name “ENIGMA”, the player took extreme measures to remain anonymous to avoid sanctions from his club.
