"It isn't an economic matter. "There are several factors that have joined together, personal, the moment of the season, and it hasn't been easy."I need to make an honest decision and one that is best for everyone." Ernesto Valverde could have a big say in Iniesta's future after his appointment on Monday.Former Athletic Bilbao head coach Valverde replaces Luis Enrique at the Catalan giants."I didn't know about Valverde until it was announced," Iniesta said. "I've talked to him a few times but not much. "I believe he has a great support team that work hard and hopefully he has a lot of luck so we can achieve things together."He's had good vision at the teams he's been at thus far and this is another step for him."</blockquote>
