FC Barcelona captain Andres Iniesta asked to be taken off during the 2-2 draw against Celta Vigo on Saturday at Camp Nou. He felt a problem with his Achilles tendon and was subbed by Valverde.

In the 53rd minute he asked the bench for the swap and Denis Suarez came on. Before leaving the pitch he had a chat with Jordi Alba and then left Valverde looking worried. 

Iniesta has already suffered problems this season, with an injury against Athletic on October 28 as well as a problem against Las Palmas on October 1.
