Former Barcelona teammate Sergio Aguero has awarded Sergio Busquets with the prestigious title of La Liga Player of the Year. Busquets, who spent an impressive 18 years at Barcelona and accumulated 722 appearances across various competitions, solidified his reputation as one of the world's top defensive midfielders during his tenure.
However, Busquets' time at the Spanish club is drawing to a close, as he is set to depart as a free agent after Barcelona's final game this weekend. Despite his impending departure, the legendary Spanish midfielder has left an indelible mark on the team.
Aguero, who joined Barcelona from Manchester City but faced setbacks due to heart issues, recognized Busquets' instrumental role in Barcelona's La Liga title victory this season. When asked to select his choice for La Liga player of the season by betting site Stake.com, Aguero acknowledged the impressive performance of Vinicius Jr but ultimately singled out Busquets.
In Aguero's view, Busquets excelled in his final season at Barcelona, embodying the club's distinctive style and providing the team with the essential balance needed to secure the league title.
As Busquets prepares to bid farewell to Barcelona, his accolade as La Liga Player of the Year adds to his remarkable legacy at the club. His contribution to Barcelona's success and his influence on the team's playing style will be remembered for years to come.
