During his illustrious career, the Spanish centre-back has won six league titles in England and Spain, four Champions League titles, two European Championships and a World Cup.

Speaking to former team-mate Rio Ferdinand, Pique opened up about the differences between Guardiola's hands-on approach and Ferguson's 'godfather' style.
