While Barcelona has been one of the best clubs, Andres Iniesta has been one of the pillars that kept the mantle up. His excellent skills,his artistic nature of play and visionary passes have kept the audience faithful to Barcelona for a long time.
But like all good things, Iniesta’s days as a Barca footballer will also come to an end, and perhaps soon, considering his age. At this juncture, these are the players who might replace Iniesta in Barcelona.
1. The young Bernardo Silva of AS Monaco has excellent dribbling skills and great at one-on-one situations
2. Philippe Coutinho, blessed with quick feet and amazing dribbling skills, is one of the best players in Liverpool and a versatile midfielder
3. One of the stars from La Masia academy, Carles Alena, who has very recently made his senior debut for Barcelona, could well become a worthy replacement for Iniesta
4. Real Madrid’s Isco is not just a former Golden Boy winner, he is also one of the best players among the contemporary younger generation of footballers
5. Thiago Alcantara is one of the best young central midfielders in the world, and a La Masia graduate, which makes him a potent choice as a long-term replacement for Iniesta
While the football world will miss Iniesta playing for Barcelona dearly, there are plenty of young talents that can carry his legacy well.
