Pique was recently interviewed by Post United, where he questioned the integrity of the La Liga officials, claiming they favour arch-rivals Real Madrid more often than not.
The 34-year-old controversially stated that La Liga referees support Real Madrid on the pitch and even unconsciously give decisions that go their way.
In a reaction to reports claiming that many former referees in Spain were Real Madrid supporters, Pique said:
Reports from Spain now claim the Spanish FA are set to investigate the Barcelona star’s comments, with a potential 12-match ban on the cards for the 34-year-old.
The veteran defender could be fined if found guilty of breaching Spanish FA guidelines, and it could cost him between €600 to -€3,000.
