Iniesta Leaves Barcelona, Says He Will Never Play Against Club

Barcelona midfielder, Andres Iniesta, has confirmed his departure from Spanish club, Barcelona at the end of the current season.

Speaking during a farewell press conference on Friday, the 33-year-old, reaffirmed the fact that he won’t play in Europe.

The Barcelona legend, however, did not reveal where he will play next season.

He said:-

“I said I would never play against Barca so it is not going to be in Europe.

“We will know at the end of the season – there are still things to talk about.”

“It is a difficult day for me to be here saying goodbye when I’ve spent my whole life here.

“A great deal of who I am, is down to Barca and La Masia – I am very thankful to them.

“I spoke to a lot of people – players, coaches – and I know what they want, but I tried to be honest with myself and the club.

“I want to be remembered as a great footballer and a great player.

“Because when our football days are over, that’s all we are – people.”
