The most followed footballers on Twitter

Andres Iniesta (Spain/Barcelona – 7.2 million) [@andresiniesta8]

The Barcelona and Spain bandwagon continues with the midfield dynamo that is Andres Iniesta. They say that stopping Messi is equivalent to stopping Barcelona, but the experts will tell you that stopping Iniesta is keen to stopping both Barca and Spain.

If there was ever a clutch player in football, Iniesta defines it. Though not as frequent a tweeter as Pique, Iniesta still has more followers and generally posts updates on his club and national side after every game and in the lead up to them.
