Barcelona’s social activity vice president “Jordi Cordoner”, has out rightly declared that the club aligns with Gerard Piqué’s side concerning his rant after the France-Spain games, he criticized the values and conformity of Real Madrid saying: “it wrangles with me to see the individual who is involved with the indictment of Messi and Neymar sitting in the VIP section of the Santaigo Bernabeu stadium” referring to the state solicitor Marta Silva Lapuerta.
Cardoner said: “From what I could read and hear, Gerard Piqué did not tell a lie and Barça are always on the side of the truth”. He went on saying: “Usually, the truth doesn’t have to start conflict and what I said has a clear reading. Piqué expressed a free opinion and we are in favor of the freedom of expression. Such clarity can offend, but he said it in a very clear manner”.
He also stated that Barcelona’s entrenched values are evident in a lifelong history: “What you put into practice is how you define values and there is a library of newspapers to understand the club [Barcelona] and its football, an incomparable type of football.”
Piqué issued another statement upon Spain’s win against France in a friendly internal encounter: “I’ve nothing against Real Madrid players but there are other things about the club that I don’t like. It wrangles with me to see the individual who is involved with the indictment of Messi and Neymar sitting in the VIP section of the Santaigo Bernabeu stadium”. He also mentioned that “It’s always been like that at Madrid he added, cases against Messi, Neymar…and nothing for Cristiano.Same as always…”
Cordoner showed no hesitation in being a backup for Piqué’s statements, he declared: “The relationship with Madrid is one of institutional courtesy as always. Gerard Piqué has not lied and the club are always on the side of the truth, that is to say, on Piqué’s side”
