Legendary midfielder Andres Iniesta praised the team’s overall performance and acknowledged Hansi Flick’s contributions, even predicting that Barcelona could win La Liga this season. In a surprising twist during a press conference, Iniesta singled out French player Jules Koundรฉ for special praise, despite expectations that he might choose an attacking player like Lamine Yamal or Rafinha.

Iniesta praised Jules Koundรฉ for his impressive development this season, highlighting his solid defensive play and unexpected offensive contributions. He declared Koundรฉ the best right-back in the world currently and noted that he still has room to grow. Iniesta emphasized that without Koundรฉโ€™s significant contributions, Barcelona’s historic start would not have been possible.
