The announcement of Andrés Iniesta’s retirement did not leave a certain Zinédine Zidane indifferent.

The information had the effect of a little bombshell for all lovers of the beautiful game:
Andrés Iniesta ended his professional football career. At the age of 40, the 2010 world champion has chosen to close this first chapter of his life, not without emotion.

Iniesta leaves behind the image of a footballer as brilliant as he is discreet. Equipped with exceptional technical quality and rare tactical intelligence, the Spanish attacking midfielder has established himself as one of the most creative and elegant players of his generation.

Zidane’s beautiful tribute to Iniesta

Who better than Zinédine Zidane to appreciate Andrés Iniesta’s career at its true value? Like Iniesta, Zizou was a virtuoso with the ball. And like the Spaniard, the icon of French football also benefited from an immaculate image.

Zinédine Zidane could therefore not remain indifferent to the announcement of the retirement of the former Barça magician. As usual, the Frenchman did not make long speeches, but he summarized in a few words all the good things he thought of Iniesta.
“We love football thanks to this type of player”wrote Zidane on his Instagram account, with a photo alongside the Spaniard.
