IS Gerard Pique aiming a sly dig at ex Shakira?

The ex-Barcelona ace, 35, had fans in hysterics when he turned up to his King's League in a modest Renault Twingo.

The Spain World Cup winner arrived at a car park filled with expensive motors in his budget motor - worth around £8,000.

But it appears that he was having a go at his former wife.

Amusingly, the Colombian songstress has written a diss track about Pique.

Out of Your League has gone on to break YouTube records and was watched more than 63million times in its first day of release.

Various lines in it are barbs at Pique, including one line where she compares the relationship to swapping "a Ferrari for a [Renault] Twingo".

Shakira, 45, separated from Pique in 2022 after they were together for 10 years - with reports of infidelity on his part.

The pair released a statement when they split in June last year, saying they were focusing on co-parenting their children Milan, nine, and Sasha, aged seven.

Pique has yet to reply to the song - instead sharing details about his new seven-a-side project, King's League.

King's League is a competition in which 12 teams comprised of former players and Spanish influencers compete for top spot.

The league kicked off last week and was a resounding success, with thousands of people tuning in to watch the matches on Twitch.

The Kings League has already had some big-name players compete in it.

World Cup winner Joan Capdevila and former Manchester United hitman Javier Hernandez have played in the competition, which determines squads through an NFL-style draft.

Former Manchester City and Argentina hitman Sergio Aguero is the president of XBUYER TEAM.

Kings League matches take place every Sunday and they consist of two twenty-minute halves.

Additionally, teams have to play one another twice.

But the kick-offs are arguably the most bizarre part of the league, with players charging towards one another from their respective goal lines after the ref blows the whistle.

Although the opening round of Kings League fixtures were watched by a whopping 800,000 people, it's done little to impress LaLiga bigwig Javier Tebas.

He said: "I can't imagine doing the Enigma thing in LaLiga. It's a circus.

"It's not a matter of attracting a young audience or not. I've read that they compare and they're wrong."
