Gerard Piqué signs Tito Vilanova’s son to the team he now owns

The first signing of Gerard Piqué’s reign as FC Andorra’s owner is a familiar face - Adrià Vilanova, a former La Masia player and the son of former FC Barcelona coach Tito Vilanova.

Piqué is a co-founder of the Kosmos Holding Group, which became the new owners of FC Andorra last month. Former Barcelona player Gabri García was named as coach, after having been sacked by Swiss team FC Sion. He was previously a Barcelona youth coach and an assistant for Barcelona B.

Adrià is a centerback who went up through the youth system at Barcelona B and was able to reach the B team.
