Xavi Hernández

Xavi Hernández made 505 La Liga appearances for Barcelona, more than any other player in the club's history, and won the league a record 8 times. As the chief architect of Barcelona's tiki-taka system, he completed 91.2% of his passes in the 2009–10 season — a league record for accuracy. He earned UEFA's Best Player in Europe award in 2011. His partnership with Andrés Iniesta in midfield is considered the finest in football history, surpassing typical combinations by enabling a possession rate over 70% in key matches. Xavi’s pass volume and precision remain unmatched, even by #4's contemporaries.
