Andres Iniesta needs 105 more games to equal Xavi's record for Barcelona in La Liga.

Andres Iniesta is a living football legend - there is no doubt about that. The Spanish midfield maestro was in action on Sunday against Leganes in La Liga, a match that took him closer to reaching Xavi's record of all record appearances for Barcelona in the competition.

Although Iniesta, 32, may not break Xavi's record due to the age factor, the Barcelona legend still boasts of being the second player with the most appearances for the Catalan club in La Liga. Here's a quick preview of the players with the most appearances for FCB in the league:

  • Xavi (505)
  • Andres Iniesta (400)
  • Carles Puyol (392)
  • Migueli (391)
  • Víctor Valdés (387

Ideally, Iniesta needs 105 more games to equal Xavi's record, which seems possible if he continues to play for at least three more seasons. But all in all, his name will go down the books of history as one of the greatest Spanish midfielders of his generation.
