Furious Barcelona great Pique threatens to take Andorra FC out of country

Barcelona great Gerard Pique is threatening to take Andorra FC out of the country.

Pique is majority shareholder and president of the Segunda Division club.

The Andorran government have announced the club must leave the Estadi Nacional from next season - which has infuriated Pique.

The former defender declared on social media: "We have invested more than €4 million in adapting the Estadi Nacional so that LaLiga will let us play and now you are kicking us out.

"There is no sports facility in Andorra in conditions to be able to compete next year. Thank you for kicking us out of the country.

"We have no other solution but to leave and change the name of the club. Congratulations, you have left Andorra without professional football."
