Pique set to visit Colombia for the first time with partner Shakira

The Barcelona defender has never previously been to the country where Shakira's from

"If you show Pique Tayrona some day, later he won't want to leave for Barcelona," goes the song 'La Bicicleta' by Shakira and Carlos Vives.

After many years of waiting, finally we will see if the Colombian singer's prediction becomes true because Gerard Pique and Shakira will spend Christmas in Colombia. It will be the Barcelona defender's first visit to the South American country. 

'RAC1' reported on Wednesday the couple's plans. They will be officially on holiday after Barcelona's game against Espanyol on Sunday. Barça will still have a Copa del Rey game against Hercules to play, but Luis Enrique will give some of his players that game off. They then won't have to return until Jan. 4. 

Therefore, Pique's participation in the Catalan national team's game against Tunisia in Girona on Dec. 28 is now in doubt. Pique's always done everything possible to not miss the traditional game Catalonia play at Christmas, but this time it's not certain whether he will be available or not.
