Gerard Pique's every move, on and off the field, is a story, but his acquisition of a 100,000 euro Porsche has been overshadowed by the socks he wore to buy it.

The Barcelona centre-back posed for a photo with the car dealer he bought the car from, which was then uploaded to Instagram.

The vehicle, a Cayenne E-Hybrid Coupe, is a hybrid with a powerful engine and a powerful battery, which can work together or individually. The electric-only capacity enables it to run for up to 48 kilometres without using any petrol.

Pique's new eco-friendly car will also be allowed into Barcelona's low-emission zones as it has the relevant 'CERO' sticker. The car has a base price of over 100,000 euros, but that's without taking into account any and all extra features Pique will have included.

Despite the photo of the shiny new car, however, the comments on the post were mainly about the 34-year-old's socks. Even former teammate Marc Bartra joined in on the mocking.
