Won t play again with Spain, says Pique
Barcelona Aug 12 (IANS) FC Barcelona defender Gerard Pique said that he will never again play for Spain s national football squad despite the 2010 FIFA World Cup winners beginning a new era with his former club coach Luis Enrique Martinez.
"I spoke with Luis Enrique one or two weeks ago. He called me and I told him I had taken that decision some time ago and that it was a decision I had thought about a lot " he told a press conference on Saturday reports Efe.
Pique noted that his time as a defender with the national selection was "very beautiful " since he had been with the team that won the European Cup and the World Cup but now that s all in the past.
"Now I want to concentrate on Barcelona. I hope I have many years here and I want to really enjoy them " he said.
