From a short-term boy to a midfield maestro, you see Xavi's magic on the street.

In the era when the ideal midfielder was imagined as a long, strong, athletic, and powerful, though short-term, Xavi, along with Anista, redefined what a modern midfielder should be, writes Periscopi.

During his career, Xavi won many grand prizes, both at the club and international level.

His ability, combined with his professionalism, makes him captain of Barcelona.

His pride in managing ball and game, organizing the group game system; the ability to preserve ball ownership, the high degree of successful equipment; the ability to detect the game system, these and many attributes, make Xavin stand out as the midfield maestro.
