Iniesta: I will try to become a coach Football Also discussed Griezmann's transfer

Former Barcelona captain Andres Iniesta has stated his ambition to step into coaching.

The Spaniard has explained, however, that he can't see himself being in charge of a team in the near future.

"On a personal level, I will surely try to become a coach and train myself, and we will see what happens in the future," he told DAZN.

"Today I find it hard to visualise it, because I still feel that excitement and that desire to continue playing football."

Iniesta went on to discuss the signing of Antoine Griezmann, as well as Barcelona's interest in Neymar, and he labelled them as two of the best players worldwide.

"They would be great reinforcements, while another issue is whether the two are necessary, how the team would play and what Barcelona really want," he added.

"They are two of the best players in the world."

Many football fans draw parallels between Pep Guardiola's Barcelona and Manchester City and the current Vissel Kobe midfielder believes that the Catalan coach has managed to bring his mentality to the English club.

"I think one of the peculiarities or things Guardiola has is that his teams play as he thinks, as he sees and as he feels they should play," he noted.

"Evidently Manchester City, in these years that he has been there, are playing a football with identity and that is the most important thing.

"Apart from that, though, each spell is different, with different players."
