He then joined Manchester United, spending four years on their books before returning to his boyhood club in 2008.In the 14 years since, Pique has made 616 appearances for the Blaugrana, scoring 53 goals and laying out 13 assists. He has won eight La Liga titles, three UEFA Champions League trophies, three FIFA Club World Cups, three UEFA Super Cups and seven Copas del Rey.The central defender also enjoyed an incredible career with Spain, earning 102 caps. He played a key part in their FIFA World Cup triumph in 2010, while also winning the European championship in 2012.How did Gerard Pique fare in his final home game for Barcelona?Having announced that the match against Almeria would be his final appearance for Barcelona, Gerard Pique was handed a start on Saturday.The Spaniard started alongside Marcos Alonso in central defense. They were flanked by Pique's long-time teammate Jordi Alba on the left and youngster Alejandro Balde on the right.Pique didn't face too many difficulties against an Almeria side that managed just four shots (one on target) all night. He recorded a block, two tackles and three interceptions, while completing 94% of his passes and even providing a key pass.The veteran centre-back was eventually substituted in the 85th minute for the returning Andreas Christensen. It gave the crowd the chance to fiercely applaud a loyal servant and serial winner whose decision to tear up his contract will massively help a club in dire financial ruins.FC Barcelona@FCBarcelona#𝐒𝐄𝐌𝐏𝐑𝟑 𝐏𝐈𝐐𝐔𝐄́ 177853299#𝐒𝐄𝐌𝐏𝐑𝟑 𝐏𝐈𝐐𝐔𝐄́ 💙❤️ https://t.co/OfIsp6TSLzBarcelona went on to win the game 2-0 courtesy of second-half strikes from Ousmane Dembele and Frenkie de Jong.
