Pique hits back over Barcelona wage claims by posting bank statement


 The Camp Nou outfit have been mired in financial troubles over the past year and now their star defender has clapped back at critics over his wages

Gerard Pique has hit back at speculation over his salary at Barcelona, with the Blaugrana stalwart insisting that he has taken a substantial pay cut in order to help ease the club's financial woes.

The Camp Nou outfit have been mired in financial troubles over the past year, with the club unable to re-sign Lionel Messi ahead of the current campaign, and several players forced to see their wages slashed in order to meet financial fair play rules.

Stalwart centre-back Pique is one who reportedly took a major reduction, only for Cammedia reports to suggest that he had merely deferred his wages earlier this week - and now, the defender has clapped back at claims that he is still on a sum close to €30 million (£25m/$34m)
