All possibilities are open – Iniesta responds to China, Japan and Australia links
Barcelona midfielder Andres Iniesta, 33, is keeping his options open as he prepares to leave at the end of the season.
Andres Iniesta revealed there are still "little details" to resolve as he decides on who is next club will be, insisting all possibilities are open outside of Europe.
The Barcelona icon is leaving the LaLiga champions at the end of the season and has been linked with moves to China, Japan and Australia after declaring he would not move to another European side.
Iniesta started Barca's 5-1 thumping of Villarreal on Wednesday and impressed as the champions moved within two games of completing an unbeaten top-flight season.
That would be an impressive way for the 33-year-old to bow out, and for the time being he will not offer many hints about what lies in store for him next.
"I said that I would not go to Europe and apart from that all possibilities are open," Iniesta told beIN Sports after the Villarreal victory, in which he received a standing ovation from the Camp Nou crowd when he was substituted in the second half.
"They said I'm not going to China, now they say Japan is an option and I've also heard Australia.
"You will know when I tell you. There are things to seal, little details and I will try and choose the best option.
