Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets has branded Xavi as "the best Spanish player of all time".
Xavi, 35, made 133 appearances for Spain between 2000 and 2014 and played a key role in their European Championship victories in both 2008 and 2012, and World Cup success in 2010.
A host of great players have graced the La Roja shirt, but Busquets believes that club teammate Xavi is the best of the lot.
"Since I started [my career], I've always been close to [Xavi]," Busquets told reporters.
"We've always been successful together, and [Xavi] has always been an example to us all. For me, he's the best Spanish player of all time."
Busquets has also played alongside Xavi at Barcelona since 2005.
