The feud between Shakira and Gerard Pique does not seem to be coming to an end. The duo have not held back any punches following their split last year. The past few weeks, especially, have been testing for Shakira, with the singer involved in multiple lawsuits. On this note, Pique took to his X account to pen a cryptic tweet, the timing of which is unlikely to be co-incidental.

Shakira received a massive setback last month after a group of Spanish prosecutors filed tax fraud cases against the singer. It has been reported that the singer owes the Spanish government over $20 million. While the bad blood between Shakira and Pique seemed to be over, Shakira’s latest track, in which she dissed the soccer star’s father, could have reignited his frustrations.

The Kings League president is quite active on social media, where he often pens cryptic tweets, leaving fans to interpret his thoughts. Pique recently penned down a string of cryptic tweets during Shakira’s outing with her kids to the VMAs. It seems like the soccer star is back at it after his ex’s involvement in multiple tax fraud lawsuits.

Pique took to his X account to once again pen a cryptic tweet, “Os podeis ir a la mierda” which translates to “You can go to hell.” Shakira, in her recent track ‘El Jefe,’ decided to diss Pique’s father, Joan Pique.
