Barcelona’s midfield maestro Andrés Iniesta is set to leave the Spanish giants at the end of the season to join Chinese Super League club Chongqing Dangdai Lifan.
Iniesta announced his intentions to leave Barcelona on Friday, bringing an end to his 22-year stay at the club.
“It’s a very difficult day for me, to be here saying goodbye when I’ve spent my whole life here at Barcelona,” he said.
“For me, Barca is the best club in the world – this club has given me everything. A great deal of who I am, is down to Barca and La Masia – I am very thankful to them.”
