Andres Iniesta Lujan celebrates his 28th birthday on May 11, 2012.

The technical profile of Barca’s no 8 on the club’s official site offers some interesting details:

“Intuitive, vertical, fast and intelligent, Andrés Iniesta is a man of many virtues. The midfielder started out in defence for Barça B and before that the club’s youth teams. But as he gained in first team experience, he was also moved into a more attacking role. He is now a full-on striker, and is also able to play as a midfielder or on either of the flanks of the Barça forward line.”

totalBarca wishes Andres Iniesta many happy returns of the day and hopes that he has a fantastic, injury-free and trophy-laden year ahead.
