The rumors were well in the air for more than six months, rumors that a footballing colossal will bade his good bye to Europe and move to Japan for last few years of his footballing career, a colossal who has dazzled all, woven threads though opposition midfields and defences, have won everything there is to win playing an integral part in all those victories, and being humble and silent through out his glittering career,the little man, but a giant of modern football, Andres Iniesta.
