The ex-player of FC Barcelona Andrés Iniesta believes that a potential return of Xavi to the club as a coach would be "great news" and does not rule out sitting on the bench next to his former teammate in the future.

Andrés Iniesta - The Unexpected Hero

The legendary midfielder of Barça and the Spanish national team expressed himself in an interview via teleconference granted on the occasion of the release of the documentary about his career "Andrés Iniesta - The Unexpected Hero", produced by Rakuten TV and available from the next day 23.

"Not bad," Iniesta replied when asked if he could see himself repeating the star pair he formed with Xavi Hernández in the midfield of Barça and La Roja on the sidelines one day.

However, the current Vissel Kobe player said it is a "hypothesis" and "complicated things that happen, although not impossible" due to the "timing," the ages of both, and their current situations.

"Right now, I am still playing and he is a coach. I don't know if I will get my coaching license or where I will be. That is to say, it's fine to imagine or invent, but then we will see," said the player from Fuentealbilla (Albacete).

"What I am clear about is that people or players who have been so important for Barça, I think it would be great news if they could come back and perform functions they were qualified to do," added Iniesta.

Xavi, current coach of Al-Sadd in Qatar, rejected an offer from Barça last January to replace coach Ernesto Valverde, and is the "cornerstone" of the sports project that candidate Víctor Font will present for the elections next summer in the Catalan club, as stated by this candidate.
