Sharon Davidovich's article about Carlo Ancelotti (Sport1)
Although he has a contract until January 2024, it is being reported in Japan this morning (Saturday) that Andres Iniesta will leave Vissel Cuba this summer.
It is claimed in the Japanese media that the physical condition of the former Barcelona star is no longer what it used to be, and also the involvement in business off the field - including his winery - contributed to the decision.
The 38-year-old Iniesta has slowly become a marginal player at the club.
This season he has already missed 11 games, and in those he did play a partner for only 59 minutes.
According to the same report, the veteran midfielder is not thinking about retirement, and his next destination will likely be the MLS or Saudi Arabia.
Where to now?

If he stays until June, Iniesta will meet Barcelona, who will go on a tour of games in Japan and play against Vissel Cuba on the 3rd and 10th of the month.
The wonderful midfielder arrived in the Japanese league in 2018 but, as mentioned, lost his position in the rotation.
This season he did not start even once in the team - not in the 11 league games or in the four cup games.
In more than half of the games he was not included in the squad at all.
