Xavi has made the most appearances in Champions League history, adding to his already legendary status in the competition.

The Barcelona midfielder moved onto 143 appearances in the Champions League after coming on against Paris Saint Germain on Tuesday evening, moving him one game ahead of Real Madrid legend Raul.

Xavi is now two games clear of Ryan Giggs and Iker Casillas, who have both made 141 appearances, while the 34-year-old is some way ahead of Clarence Seedorf (125).

When Champions League qualifying is taken into account, Giggs comes out on top with 151 appearances – but with 149 games including qualifying under his belt, Xavi looks well on course to overtake the Welshman.

Xavi will be looking to win his fourth Champions League title with Barcelona this season, adding to his remarkable trophy collection – which includes seven Spanish league titles, three UEFA Super Cups, three Copa Del Reys and more.
