Gerard Pique suffers fall embarrassment as he tries to sign Barcelona jersey
Pique travelled to Mexico to introduce the King League Americas, an updated version of the seven-a-side league he founded in 2022.
During a presentation, Pique approached a fan who was holding up a jersey but the ex-Barcelona star lost concentration while approaching the fan.
He ended up falling into a small hole which he did not see while trying to sign an autograph for a fan.
Pique’s incident
Gerad Pique was on the move to sign a jersey for a young fan but before he could get to the fan, he fell into a chasm by the stage.
The former Manchester United and Barcelona player seemed as though he was taking a dramatic fall from a stage while listening to a voicemail on his phone.
According to Marca, as reported by the Sun, the defender vanished totally when he went into the more than two-metre-deep hole.
Thankfully, it was believed that he had not been injured in the fall as he climbed back up to the stage.
CUIDADO 😳😳
