Gerard Pique Shows Love to Lionel Messi With Touching Gesture After Barcelona Departure
Lionel Messi left FC Barcelona this summer after spending over 20 years at the club. His farewell was one of the most emotional moments of the summer as the Argentinian couldn’t stop the tears at his final press conference. However, even after leaving, he still has several friends in the Barcelona squad.
Club captain Gerard Pique is chief among them as Pique and Messi were two of the longest-serving members at the club, along with midfielder Sergio Busquets. Moreover, Pique is also the proud owner of Kosmos Holding, his own company.
The Spanish center-back has always been praised for his business acumen. He has remained active and keeps investing in several companies and ventures that interest him. However, Kosmos Holding recently acquired the TV rights to Ligue 1 in Spain. The company will hope to showcase Messi’s PSG debut in Spain.
Pique’s company @KosmosOfficial have bought TV rights to Ligue 1 & 2 for the next three years (in partnership with Enjoy TV). Plan is to sublicense them & they’re working on deal so that Messi’s (potential) PSG debut will be available in Spain this weekend

Football journalist Samuel Marsden revealed the news on Twitter, and he revealed that the plan was to make Messi’s debut available this weekend. Paris Saint Germain face Reims on Sunday, and there’s a lot of speculation about Messi playing. The Argentinian hasn’t made his debut for the French club yet, despite joining them two weeks ago.
Paris Saint Germain build a superteam with Lionel Messi.
Mauricio Pochettino has one of the best squads of all time on his hands. PSG had an amazing transfer window and brought in the likes of Gini Wijnaldum, Gianluigi Donnarumma and Achraf Hakimi. However, the marquee signing of former Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos was the one that turned heads in football circles.
Moreover, the French club also signed Lionel Messi, and they now look unstoppable. Even if they might lose their young superstar Kylian Mbappe, the club still has enough quality in their ranks to win the UEFA Champions League, which would be their first-ever UCL trophy.
Confirmed. Real Madrid made a new official bid to Paris Saint-Germain for Kylian Mbappé. €170m guaranteed + €10m add ons. #RealMadrid #Mbappé
Real Madrid sources feeling is that it will be the final bid. Mbappé only wants Real Madrid, now or next summer. pic.twitter.com/xRhVUsYDlt

However, Pochettino needs to get his rotation right with this huge squad. If he manages to keep everyone happy in Paris, the French club could go down in history as one of the greatest teams of all time.
