Manchester United legend, Rio Ferdinand, has revealed that he played a key role in catapulting Gerrard Pique to greatness.
Ferdinand said this while paying a heartfelt tribute to Pique as the Barcelona defender played the last game of his career against Almeria on Saturday.
Pique played for Man United between 2004 and 2008, making 23 appearances.
The Spaniard scored two goals and provided one assist for the Premier League giants.
Pique sent an absolute shocker to everyone on Thursday by announcing his retirement from the game at the age of 35.
