Pique: Madrid is my second home

Pique has accepted an interview with the journalist of Spanish radio COPE in which he talked about his own business, Olympic games and the relationship with Madrid.

Madrid

“Madrid is like my second home. I have always felt very kind. I've never had a bad face, a bad gesture to this city, despite the rivalry with Barcelona. It may be weird, but I've spent hours and hours walking around Madrid and I've taken pictures with people from Madrid. The rivalry is on the pitch, not on the street,” he stressed.

Davis Cup

“I'm nervous about the new project because there are three or four days left for Davis. I'm looking forward to it starting now. Let's hope they can all come. Rafa and the 96 players. Federer said he had pain in his elbow, but then he said it didn't bother him. I understand that next week he's going to play.”

Retirement from Spain

“I left the national team because I think it was the time. At 31, I can't concentrate a whole week in the training ground of the national team.”

Olympic games

“I don't know if I'm going to the Olympics. I don't lock any doors. But I don't want to pronounce myself because there's a coach. In any case, I would talk to him, it is not necessary to do so publicly.”

Barcelona and Valverde

“Next week I will be in Madrid for Davis Cup, I already talked to Valverde about it. But the most important thing, there is no doubt, is to win in Leganes. I will go to Madrid at the beginning of the week, but when the game approaches it no longer.”
