In the first season, Gerard Pique was quite successful with the Kings League. He managed to cash out a major $3 million as just profits. But the second season isn’t quite going as per their ideal plan. The FC Barcelona legend could face a major drop in income. That’s simply because the second season of the Kings League is facing a severe drop in viewership. But Sergio Aguero recently messed it up even more.

The entire Kings League panel was seemingly on the After Kings live stream. During a candid sponsorship moment, the Manchester City striker accidentally bad-mouthed one of the sponsors of the unique soccer league.

During the After Kings live stream, one of the Presidents sitting beside Pique asked him for a Red Bull can. Pique immediately obliged and reached for one. After handing him over the can, the soccer veteran tried to naturally steer the conversation toward Red Bull. Without a doubt, it was quite a smart attempt by the FC Barcelona legend.

But Kun Aguero seriously had other plans that day. The lethal striker unknowingly badmouthed Red Bull who is a sponsor on the show. As soon as Pique tried to talk about Red Bull, Aguero entered the conversation. Without any hesitation, he said, “What is this, Red Bull? No, but that’s bad, stupid”, as compiled by Milenio and translated by Google Translate.

As soon as Aguero said that Pique turned towards him with a surprised look on his face. He then said, “Red Bull to death”. By then, everyone around them had realized what had happened. The Argentine soccer icon confessed, “I forgot”. While he covered his face with grief everyone around the room couldn’t stop laughing.

It surely wasn’t the best time for something like this to happen. That is simply because Pique and Kings League are heading for daunting losses by the end of the current season.

In May, a report emerged that Pique’s Kings League and Queens League could face major losses. The unique soccer tournament had suffered a downward trajectory of viewership for three weeks in a row. In a match between Pio FC and 1K Futbol Club, only 249k viewers tuned in to watch the game. That accounted for only 2.3% of the viewership share.

Recent broadcasts have witnessed a 4.6% share loss and a decline of more than 440k viewers. The Queens League hasn’t been doing any better. The female counterpart of the league suffered a drop in viewership from 350k to 160k. The real question now is whether Pique will be able to cash out a similar $3 million amount as profits like the inaugural season.
