In case you didn’t know…
Football fans all over the world are familiar with the exploits of Andres Iniesta. He will retire as one of the greatest midfielders ever, having won everything there is to win in the game, for both club and country.
With Spain, Iniesta guided his team to two successful Euro Cups in 2008 and 2012 and a World cup in 2010. His 116th minute winner in the final against Netherlands will be etched into the memories of football fanatics over the world for a long time.
Like his national team, Iniesta’s impact with Barcelona is unfathomable, which makes him one of the most decorated and best midfielders of our time. With over 650 appearances for the Blaugrana, Iniesta will go down in the books as one of the finest artists in world football. He now plays at Japanese club, Vissel Kobe in the J league.
The heart of the matter
The 34-year-old Spanish midfielder has affirmed that coaching is a part of his plans in the near future when he decides to hang up his boots.
Despite leaving LaLiga and Barcelona, Iniesta remains a keen follower of the Catalan giants and stated that he watches Barca’s matches whenever possible.
What’s next?
Management doesn’t seem like many years ahead, but at present, Iniesta’s focus is on the Japanese top-flight. His side are gearing up to face Vegalta Sendal next on March 10 as they look to build on a winning run after having lost once already in their two matches so far.
