Andrés Iniesta hints at Barcelona return as coach or sporting director

FC Barcelona legend and current Vissel Kobe midfielder Andrés Iniesta has hinted that he will return to his former club after his playing days are over.

“I will continue one more year here (in Japan) and then we will see,” Iniesta said in an interview.

“I would love to return to Barça, it is my home, but I still don’t know in what capacity: coach, sporting director, or something like that. In any case, the first thing I have to do is train and, for now, I still see myself as a player.
