Life after soccer has been quite a rollercoaster ride for Gerard Pique. Ever since the Spaniard hung his boots, he has made quite a few strides in the soccer world. Primarily, his latest launch of a seven a-side tournament, the Kings League, kept him in the limelight. In fact, another famous star is intrigued by his new soccer venture. The league, which was launched in December 2022, is quickly gaining momentum.

Notably, it has become a subject of interest for a millionaire rapper, as he looks to buy a club in the tournament.

Ibai Llanos, the popular steamer, was one of the key figures in the inception of the famous Kings League. He, along with Pique, were the architects behind the tournament. The famous streamer usually hosts many renowned stars among his streaming audience. Likewise, popular singer Eladio Carrión was one of the latest guests on his stream.

Among various subjects, they both took the time to discuss the trending competition, the Kings League. While the singer may not be well-versed in how the league functions, Ibai provided an explanation, and the singer came up with an idea. Ibai mentioned that the Kings League Americas would commence in January 2024. Certainly, it opened Carrión’s ears like an elephant, as he quickly interjected Llanos by expressing his interest in becoming one of the presidents of the competition. He said, “Piqué put me in that league and I’ll get a couple of players”.

As per Marca, aside from promising to get some good players, the rapper even revealed the name of his team, “La H FC”. Apparently, this topic came up because Ibai Llanos had previously approached the singer to create the anthem for his team, Porcinos. Several teams in the Kings League, such as Jijantes, 1K, Rayo de Barcelona, and Ultimate Móstoles, already have their own songs.

The Basque streamer wants to create an anthem that reflects the style of the renowned urban music star. This way, Llanos would get a song, and Carrión would get his place in the Kings League Americas. Indeed, it is quite an interesting deal between the two. But let’s dive deeper into Pique’s latest expansion idea for the Kings League.

What is the latest Kings League expansion idea from Gerard Pique?

As per a report from El Tiempo, Gerard Pique is set to expand the Kings League to the Americas. The new venture, titled Kings League Americas, will have its headquarters in Mexico. “The Kings League Americas will have presidents or owners from different countries. We want to involve as many countries as possible. There will be countries from Central America, and there will also be a couple from North America that speak Spanish. Then there will be a Colombian, Chilean, Argentinean club,” said Pique.

The legendary player mentioned that they have already secured commitments from five or six clubs in various Latin American countries. Given Colombia’s strong soccer culture and connections, a move to the country would undoubtedly prove beneficial for both the league and Pique as an entrepreneur. Shakira’s home country, Colombia, holds a significant affinity for soccer, making it a promising destination for the league’s expansion. Indeed, Pique continues to grow his empire.
