Gerard Pique and Clara Chia look more in love than ever! The couple showed some PDA after Barcelona’s emotional farewell tribute on Saturday.
With more than a year left on his contract at the Catalan club, Gerrard, 35, stunned the football world last week when he announced he would call time on his career in the game.
After giving an emotional speech following Barcelona’s win over Almeria at the Nou Camp, the retired star was seen being comforted by his 23-year-old girlfriend, while the hot couple clung to each other as they walked around the pitch’s stands. They used to kiss and hug.
The father-of-two, whose two sons were also in attendance, revealed he has nothing to hide anymore, having ended his 11-year relationship with Colombian singer Shakira after he married Clara. Locked their lips together and wrapped their arms around her.
Spanish sports television network Goalplay filmed the memorable moment and wrote alongside the footage which it posted on Twitter Goal Direct: ‘Gerard Pique’s first kiss after the tribute. The centre-back shared this special day with his loved ones.
A commentator for the match said that as a cameraman approached the couple, they realized their romantic scene was being filmed, but they continued to embrace each other.
Gerard – who announced his split from Shakira in June amid cheating rumors – hasn’t been shy about packing on the PDA with his model girlfriend in recent weeks.
The former Man United defender shocked the football world on Thursday by announcing on Twitter that Saturday’s game against Almeria will be his last in a Barcelona shirt and his last as a professional footballer.
He made 397 appearances for the Catalan giants, scoring 29 times, and was capped 102 times for Spain at senior level.
