Where did Arthur's admiration for Iniesta come from?

The Brazilian has never his his love for the Barça midfielder
Arthur has always spoken openly about the fact that Andres Iniesta is one of his icons in the world of football. He admires him as a player and a person and, for him, it would be a dream to be able to share a dressing room with the Barcelona legend.
The Brazilian midfielder has followed him since he was a kid: "I have always said that I have a huge affection for Iniesta. Even before Barcelona's interest in signing me came out I followed his games because his way of playing impressed me. How he plays, how he keeps possession. For me, Iniesta's a player that make a team play in that way."
Arthur admits that Iniesta is football heritage: "He's so goo. He has everything in his head because he's the one that organises the play alongside some incredible players. He makes it look easy... he's an example to follow."
The Gremio midfielder, who will move to Barcelona in January, if not the summer, is dreaming of playing alongside Iniesta. But he will have to wait and see. Iniesta is deciding whether or not to move to a different country for the final years of his career -- and Arthur could be his successor. Student and master.
