2.Andrés Iniesta #GraciasAndrés
Following FC Barcelona’s exit from the tournament on Tuesday, veteran midfielder Andres Iniesta admitted there is a possibility he will never play in the UCL again. The Spaniard has won the competition four times in his career and has made 130 appearances in it.
Andres Iniesta has bid an emotional farewell to Barcelona after 22 glittering years at the Nou Camp. Andrés Iniesta got the send-off he deserved on Sunday evening in the final match of the season, and his last ever game in the famous Blaugrana shirt – the only one of he has ever worn in one of the most glittering careers in football history. Indeed, his amazing tally of 32 major trophies is a club record that he shares with Leo Messi.
LaLiga champions Barca claimed a 1-0 win over Real Sociedad and it was a fitting finale for the 34-year-old, who lifted the trophy for a ninth time.
Addressing supporters on the pitch after the final whistle, Iniesta said he “leaves as a man”, having spent so long playing for the Catalan giants.
“I will move on and carry you all in my heart forever,” he said. “It’s been a wonderful 22 years, full of pride, and it’s been a pleasure to represent this club.
