Iniesta won nine La Liga titles during his 18 years in the senior team at the Nou Camp, as well as four Champions Leagues. The Spaniard is widely regarded as one of the best midfielders of all time, having starred in Pep Guardiola 's all-conquering team. Despite that success on the outside, Iniesta did have struggles with his mental health. He has previously opened up on one particular moment in his career when he had to seek out help after going into depression. That period came during the 2009/2010 season when he suffered a series of injuries that sidelined him for much of the campaign.
