Barcelona defender Gerard Pique says he believes president Josep Maria Bartomeu over claims the club paid a company to attack key figures on social media – including the Catalan centre-back.
A report on Cadena SER alleged last week that Barcelona had hired a firm to "protect the reputation" of Bartomeu and also to "erode the image" of ex-players, presidential candidates and more.
Barca released a statement denying the report and Bartomeu met with the players to assure them the information was false.
"I couldn't tell you if it annoyed me," Pique said when asked about the saga ahead of Barca's Champions League game against Napoli on Tuesday. "I don't care. In the end, social networks are uncontrollable. Everybody says what they like.
"The way I saw him (Bartomeu), I believed that at least he didn't know because when we had the meeting, he was upset. But it's something that came out, blew up and has been resolved."
