Andres Iniesta has outlined three Barcelona players he would focus on recruiting if he were in a managerial role.

The 40-year-old has recently announced his retirement, marking the end of a distinguished 24-year professional football career.

Iniesta has expressed his intention to eventually “return to Barca,” but the timeline for his potential foray into senior management remains unclear.

He has revealed his top picks for potential recruits from Barcelona, naming a midfielder, a winger, and a goalkeeper.

His choices may come as a surprise: “I would choose Pedri, [Marc-André] Ter Stegen, and Ansu Fati,” he announced during an interview with the Spanish media outlet El Partidazo de Cope.

Pedri is expected to value the acknowledgment, given his frequent comparisons to Iniesta.

Both players possess comparable characteristics such as a polished first touch and outstanding passing skills, accentuated by their low center of gravity.

Ter Stegen is currently sidelined with a ruptured patellar tendon suffered in September during a match against Villarreal. His proven track record at Barcelona deems him a suitable candidate for Iniesta.

Fati’s selection, on the other hand, may cause some surprise among supporters, considering his recent setbacks.
