When asked who is the greatest player he shared the dressing with, he wasted no time in pointing at his former Barcelona team make and Spanish international Andres Iniesta
“I shared a dressing-room with many great players, if I have to choose one I would say Iniesta”
Eto’o; now 39 of age said he would have mentioned Lionel Messi instead but the tactical abilities of Iniesta impressed him a whole lot.
