One of the veterans of modern football, Andres Iniesta, is a free agent after leaving his Japanese club Vissel Kobe. 

While announcing his decision, a tearful Iniesta indicated that he would continue playing but doesn't reveal where. 

Asked where he might play, he replied: “I have to tell you the truth, I don't know."

“I want to keep playing football. I feel like I can still play. But as this chapter closes, we'll see what's possible. I want to finish my career on the pitch playing, and this is what I'm hoping to do," 2010 World Cup winner Iniesta added.

He also stated; "I would love to return to Barcelona at some point in my life, but. But I still think it's a long way off."

However, various news reports suggested he might move to a club in the Middle East, but with no details about clubs.

Iniesta, a Barcelona legend, moved to the Japanese club in 2018. He won four Champions League titles and nine La Liga championships with Barcelona.
