The best midfield duo in Barcelona, ​​the two midfielders who played a key role in Barca's tiki-taka game, the two players who were the mainstays of the club's trophy-winning national team, the two players who earned the full respect of their opponents, the two best products of La Masia. Yes, those two players are Xavi and Iniesta. The two players who came out of Barcelona's academy, La Masia, were the best midfield in Barcelona's golden era. They were the key players in winning many trophies under coach Guardiola.

The midfield, led by Xavi and Iniesta, was able to control the other team's midfield and played a key role in Barcelona's tiki-taka game, winning many trophies. Xavi Iniesta's midfield provided the team with a strong attacking presence and was also able to score goals when needed. Xavi was born on 25 January 1980 in Catalonia. Xavi joined Barcelona's youth academy, La Masia, at the age of 11, and made his debut against Morocco in August 1998. Xavi made 767 appearances for Barcelona, ​​scoring 85 goals, and is the first player in Barcelona's history to play in 150 European and FIFA World Cup matches. With Barcelona, ​​he won eight La Liga titles, three Copa del Rey titles, six Supercopa de Espana titles, and one Copa del Rey. He won four Champions Leagues, two Super Cups and two World Cups.

Xavi left Barcelona in 2015 for Qatari club Al Sadd and retired in 2019. Iniesta was born in a small village in Spain in May 1984. Iniesta played youth football at the age of 12 and was scouted by many journalists. His parents were close to the Barcelona youth team coach, so Iniesta joined the Barcelona academy. He then went to La Masia and trained as a midfielder before making his debut for the Barcelona senior team in 2002 at the age of 18. After Iniesta arrived at the club, Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola told teammate Xavi, "He's going to retire me, he's going to retire us all." Iniesta was so impressed by his performance that he said, "He's going to retire me, he's going to retire us all."

He then became a regular in the 2004/2005 season and played until 2018, winning the treble twice for Barcelona, ​​taking his total to 35 trophies. After Barcelona, ​​he spent six years at J1 club Vissel Kobe before moving to his final club, Emirates in the UAE Pro League, in 2023/2024. In over 1,000 appearances, he never received a red card and was respected by even his bitterest city rivals. With Barcelona, ​​Iniesta won nine La Liga titles, six Copa del Rey titles, six Supercopa de Espana titles, four Champions League titles, two Super Cups and three World Cups.

He achieved many successes with Barcelona and was the best in the team's midfield during its golden era. Thank you to everyone who read to the end.
