Xavi praises Andres Iniesta, Sergio Busquets

Barcelona midfielder Xavi says that he is "proud" to have played alongside Spanish teammates Andres Iniesta and Sergio Busquets at both club and international level.

Xavi has revealed that he is "proud" to have been a part of one of the most decorated midfield trios in the history of football.

Alongside Andres Iniesta and Sergio Busquets, Xavi has won a host of trophies during a glittering career at the Camp Nou.

Ivan Rakitic has taken Xavi's spot in the team this season, but the veteran has revealed that he will always look back with fondness at his time spent with his two club and international teammates.

"I'm proud to have been with Iniesta and Busquets for so many years. They have been important players for the national team and for Barca, I'm proud to have shared so much with them," Xavi told reporters at a press conference.

Xavi will leave Barcelona to join Al-Sadd on a two-year deal this summer. However, the Spaniard has the chance to secure a fourth Champions League crown on Saturday when Barca face Juventus in the final of the European Cup.
