Gerard Pique hailed Luis Suarez but admitted he teases him about how much he cost
Barcelona defender Gerard Pique has hailed the club's decision to sign Luis Suarez - but admits he teases the striker about his price tag.
Barcelona take on Juventus in the Champions League final in Berlin on Saturday evening, with both sides looking to complete the treble after securing their respective domestic league and cup titles.
Barcelona's deadly trio have over 120 goals between them this season
“From the defensive part I think he pressures a lot, and it helps us to put the defensive line up, so It’s easy for us to pressure,” he said, speaking to Sky Sports as part of the build-up to the final.
“And from the offensive part, he’s just a goalscorer. He scores for fun – headers, right foot, left foot, in any kind of position.
“Sometimes we can play him long balls and he knows how to protect the ball.
“I think it was a really good signing, even though it was really expensive – I always tell him he’s really expensive! But this year he’s shown that it’s good enough for us.”
