#2: Andres Iniesta
Spanish magician Andres Iniesta is one of the ultimate fan-favourites at the Nou Camp. A skilled player, he is known for his vision and defence-splitting passes. The La Masia graduate has been an integral part of every successful Barca team in the last decade.
Along with a host of titles to his name, Iniesta has his name etched in history for scoring the World Cup winner against the Netherlands.
Valverde will certainly relish having a player of Iniesta's calibre on his side, after naming him as the captain of the Blaugrana. As the gaffer plans to match the exploits of former manager Luis Enrique, Iniesta remains an important piece of the jigsaw despite his age.
