Barcelona legend Iniesta: Spectacular if Messi returned

Barcelona legend Andres Iniesta would like to see PSG ace Lionel Messi return to the Nou Camp.

Iniesta, currently playing for Vissel Kobe in Japan, is currently visiting Barca.

“I don't know how these situations are, Leo is a PSG player and evidently as a Cule and seeing what he's been for Barca, for his history, I hope at some moment in these years if the chance comes, it would be spectacular for him to be able to say goodbye. He deserves it, but I know that it will not be easy to make it happen," said Iniesta to Sport.

On Argentina's World Cup win, Iniesta continued: “I think that Argentina and Leo deserved it for the competition they had. We can like one thing or or less than others but it's totally deserved. From there, that Leo has a World Cup or not, I don't know if on an external opinion level it changes anything or not, but he did it and that sensation is marvellous.

"That moment, of lifting the cup, of feeling that Argentina as a country have won it again."
