Trending
The first time Pep Guardiola saw Andres Iniesta play was at the Nike Cup in Spain when the young Spaniard turned out for the youth team. It was the Manchester City manager’s brother who convinced him to go check the game out.
"Sometimes in life, it’s first impressions that count and the first impression I have of Andrés was the day my brother Pere, who was working for Nike at the time, told me about Iniesta”, said Guardiola.
“I was still playing for Barcelona myself and he said: ‘Pep, you’ve got to come and see this kid.’ It was before the final of the Nike Cup. I remember getting changed quickly after training and rushing there, dashing to the stadium.”
"And yes, I saw how good he was. I told myself: ‘This kid will play for Barcelona, for sure...he’s going to make it.’ I told myself that, and I told Pere that too”, revealed the former Bayern Munich boss in a biograhy on Iniesta titled, ’The Artist: Being Iniesta’.
