The academy has 2 fundamental ideals as its foundational pillars. On one hand, to facilitate access and understanding of Andrés’ methodology for its correct execution on the field and, on the other hand, to learn and strengthen the base of all soccer players with Andrés’ values off the field.
Training is always supervised by Iniesta Academy Technical Directors in order to help the players in his football and personal development. By practicing in training, the players can get to know the most important points that Andrés Iniesta considers when playing football. We want the players to improve their decision making, so that they will be able to adapt to game situations and make the best on-field choices.
