"We have no other choice but to leave" - Gerard Pique confirms his Spanish club will leave current stadium and change name because of the government

Gerard Pique, the owner of FC Andorra since 2018, has found himself in an escalating dispute with the Andorran government. The issue centers around FC Andorra's use of the National Stadium. It served as the team's home base, but recent governmental decisions have threatened this, with Pique choosing to pull the club out of Andorra.

As per Football Espana, the club have faced challenges from the Andorran authorities, who have rescinded the team's access to the National Stadium's facilities.

The magnitude of this decision is significant as Pique has claimed that he invested substantially, to the tune of over €4 million, in renovating the stadium to meet La Liga's standards.

Despite these hefty investments, the government's stance remains unyielding, pushing the club to the brink of eviction. In a recent statement on platform X, an evidently vexed Pique expressed his disdain for the government's actions. He wrote:

"We have invested more than €4m in adapting the National Stadium so that La Liga lets us play there, and now you throw us out. There is no sports facility in Andorra that is up to standard for next year. Thank you for expelling us from the country."

Gerard Pique added:

“We have no other choice but to leave and change the name of the club. Congratulations, you have left Andorra without professional football.”

With the future of FC Andorra hanging in the balance, it is uncertain where the club will play moving forward.
