As Xavi prepares to say his goodbyes after 17 years at Barcelona, a photograph posted to the club's official Instagram account has illustrated the incredible success he achieved at the Nou Camp.

The Spain midfielder, now 35 and preparing to move to Al-Sadd following Saturday's Champions League final, posed on Barcelona's pitch alongside the 24 trophies won while he was at the club.

They include eight league titles, three Champions Leagues, two UEFA Super Cups, three Copa del Reys, six Spanish Supercups, and two FIFA Club World Cups.

 He will take his tally to 25 if Barca beat Juventus to claim this season's Champions League final in Berlin, but regardless of the result Xavi is already the club's most decorated player ever.

Iniesta, who has been in the team with Xavi since 2002, said: 'Captain, team-mate and friend. We can't imagine the first work-out of next season without you. It's been a privilege to play alongside you.

'Thanks, Xavi, for always being an example, for always putting the group before yourself. Thanks for all your advice.

'Thank you Xavi, for all those years, for all the talks, about football and other things. Those who know you know you will be back.'
