Gerard Pique has said he is not confident that the 2020 Davis Cup will take place due to Spain's restrictions on spectators attending events because of the coronavirus pandemic.
The Barcelona defender's investment group Kosmos paid three billion euros in 2018 to acquire the rights to the sport's flagship team event, transforming it into a week-long competition akin to a tennis World Cup.The 2019 Davis Cup in Madrid, won by Spain, was the first to be held in one city and the competition is also scheduled to take place in the Spanish capital in November.
"There is a lot of uncertainty. We are listening to what the sport's ministry and the government are telling us about whether we'll be able to have fans in the stadium. "I think in the next few weeks we'll have more clarity but right now we're trying to be prepared," he added.
