Over a decade at Camp Nou, the midfielder has usurped Yaya Toure and forced Javier Mascherano into a change of position as he has become a mainstay
September 13, 2018 marks the tenth anniversary of Sergio Busquets’ Barcelona debut.
When the midfielder first stepped out for the Camp Nou side against a newly promoted Racing Santander, Pep Guardiola still had hair on his head. His decision to promote the youngster from the ‘B’ ranks of the club proved one of his best in his early years in management, with Busquets the man who would ultimately overthrow Yaya Toure in the heart of the park and force Javier Mascherano into a new career as a centre-back.
