Barcelona players to celebrate Champions League victory by partying at Shakira concert
Posted Monday, May 30, 2011 by Foxsports.com
Barcelona's players will go to a concert by defender Gerard Pique's girlfriend, Shakira, in Barcelona on Sunday to celebrate their Champions League victory.
"Champions!! Champions!! thank you so much!!" Pique wrote on his Twitter account Saturday after a thrilling 3-1 win over Manchester United at London's Wembley Stadium.
"Tomorrow at Barcelona and then the players will go to @shakira concert in the Olympic Stadium!!"
The 24-year-old Pique, a former Manchester United player, met the singer last year while shooting the video to her song "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)" -- the official track of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, which was won by Spain.
In January Shakira, 34, announced the end of her 11-year relationship with Argentine lawyer Antonio de la Rua and shortly after gossip magazines began speculating that she was dating Pique.
The singer confirmed her romantic relationship with the Spanish international footballer in March through a message posted on her Twitter account that was accompanied by a photo of the smiling pair.
