We are already in the final stretch for football to come to a standstill and all eyes are focused in one direction: he Qatar World Cup 2022. Therefore, One of the great unknowns that we all want to know is who will finally be the footballers that will make up each of the participating teams. Well then, in Spain there is quite a bit of fuss over this issue.

Piqué's options to go to Qatar 2022

And it is that Luis Enrique, national coach, it tends to be controversial at least in its calls, which do not leave anyone indifferent. Even though, it is true that to date he has not done very badly in these controversial decisions of his.

Well then, the day 11 November the Asturian coach will announce the 26 players who will participate in the World Cup. Nevertheless, you already have in your hands a pre-list of 55 footballers where there seems to be a major surprise.

According to the companions of the newspaper MARCA, Luis Enrique would have included Gerard Piqué, Player of FC Barcelona, in this list of futures selected for Qatar. Something that has raised a huge stir, and is not for less.

Its performance is not even close to ideal

It was normal that this news aroused agitation. Pique, that he was one of the best players Barça last year, going through very critical moments.

The central culé is one of the last options of Xavi Hernandez to complete the rear. It's more, every time he has jumped onto the pitch he has not shone too much. So much so, who has made some big mistakes, like that famous one against Inter in Champions, that have cost trouble.

That is why its inclusion in the famous pre-list is very surprising. Even though, It must also be said that he has very few options to finally go to the World. Ahead of him there are many other central defenders that have been more or less used by Luis Enrique in the last engagements: Iñigo Martínez, Pau Torres, Laporte, Eric Garcia y, maybe, Sergio Ramos, who his role with him PSG this season is being more than notorious.

Even so, This information is still striking and who knows if Pique, who recently left a door open, could return to the Spanish team, which he left precisely on his own initiative when Luis Enrique took charge.
